I picked Hayden up from school today, and as we usually do on the way home, I asked him about his day. (You know trying to be the interested, good parent and all, even though I know that the answer that I am going to get is going to have nothing to do with school and be something about rainbows, superheros and shooting bad animals).
"So Hayden how was your day? What did you do in school today?"
"Mom! Don't ask me that. Just read it on my daily report sheet."
"Can't you tell me? Who did you play with?"
"Mom! Read the sheet. That is why we have it."
Point taken. I guess I will read the sheet. I thought this attitude thing wasn't suppose to start until the teens. I know, he will grow out of it by then and we won't have to go through the wicked teen angst (or that is what I keep telling myself).

Get used to it! I wish I had a quarter for everytime I learned that "Nothing" happened at school--every day!

At the end of each class period, I'll often ask my 17 year old students what they will say to their parents when they ask, "what did you learn in school today." I also use a tone that is usually reserved for elementary school kids. My students laugh and give often very creative and actually insightful answers.
