My Son Needs Some Help. Anti-Evolution Speaker Coming to His School

62. Yes. I do all his homework for him. He is actually incapable of thinking for himself.

You wouldn't believe how hard it is on me to run my own business, keep up the house and do all the work it takes to cover his dual majors in Math and Education. Gosh, it was even harder when he was in high school and I had to earn his Palmetto Fellow scholarship for him and the other scholarships that he has in order to be at Clemson on full scholarship.

Lynne, here's the deal, I was chatting with him last night when he told me about this lecture he was attending that is being offered as a counterpoint to Darwin Week. He told me that he and some other members of the secular club he is involved in were planning to go and ask questions during the Q&A session after the talk. I said, "Hey, I am on the DU right now. I bet some of the people there have some good information on this. I will ask if anybody has anything to offer." He didn't ask me to. I don't do his homework for him. Since he is taking some weird calculus that looks like Greek to me, I couldn't even if I wanted to. As a matter of fact, he just called to tell me that he just aced another quiz in the weird calculus class and at this point in the year, he has already gotten enough high test scores that if he wanted to quit going to class RIGHT NOW, he would still pass. He is a smart kid who can and does handle his own research. I like him and like feeling involved with what he is doing, so I made a simple offer. It baffles me that some people have managed from that to extrapolate that I am 'doing his homework' or even his research for him.

Peace.
