If it makes you feel better, mine would have gone to school, not handed it in. Once the assignment showed up in the handy online grade report, she would then claim she didn't know she had to do it, wasn't sure if she had handed it in, had done it but it was in her locker, that she was pretty sure she gave it to the teacher, that she showed it to us last week don't we remember we must have lost it, that it's all stupid anyway because she's going to drop out of school as soon as she's able.

Wow, yes actually I do feel better, although that will probably hit us next year

Is Bipolar getting diagnosed more often these days?
Wow. I was just having a bizarrely stupid and random conversation with someone about how it seems everyone is bipolar these days. Then we went on to imagine a scenario involving a former coworker who was diagnosed with multiple personalities... and we were cracked up over the idea of each of her personalities being diagnosed with different issues such as bipolar disorder. Yep, we're sick and wrong.

Today's irritant, some journalist guy was on Talk of the Nation complaining about the Disney girl's pictures in Vanity Fair. He's concerned because his 4 year old watches her show. Dear Dad, turn off the damn tv. Disney will over-sexualize young girls. That is how they make their money. Why is your child watching that crap if you are concerned with morals?
