Despite what everyone seems to think, the wiktor qual isn't much different. Like, occasionally there will be a batch or two that are really good, but most of the time it's just a few dollars here and there.
The instructions on the ones up now say, don't make more than .10/min kthxbye

That's good my parents very much treated me like an adult from a young age and expected me to just do everything on my own. I'm thankful for it.
I like that they did that! I know my recent posts don't sound like it, but I do have very high expectations that my kid will just "handle stuff." I tell him almost weekly that I'm not raising "a child." I'm raising a future man, husband and father. My goal is to release a self-sufficient person into the world when he leaves my house.

He just has a few weaknesses that for now he needs my help with. He just changed schools this year and adjusting is a big thing, and he wants me to stay involved at a micro level for a bit until he gets the hang of it. And I will be honest, as long as I see no Ds or Fs, I don't get involved in his schooling unless it's something I have to be involved in (academic wise. I am part of the PTA.)

No, they're visible to everyone. The HIT did specify that you actually have to be a member here, though, and specifically asked for a member name. So, even if it's an unregistered lurker, they still weren't exactly following directions.


Ehh, my TO could use some color, anyway.
oh i get that, just thinking their first answer at least makes sense in that context

by the time i was in middle school they had online report card viewing, which my mom never made use of. but when they started including updates by assignment i'd take advantage of checking it so i could call out when teachers made mistakes for assignments i turned in or they misgraded
OMG! One of my kid's first online assignments was wrong! I pointed out the bad grade to him (he didn't have the app yet to check) and he was positive he did better. So he went to his teacher and guess what? It was misgraded! The key was wrong, so it wasn't just him, it was for ALL the students! Everyone's grade went up after LittleTricker went to his teacher about it. That was a super good life lesson!

Multiple people have said they are broken. I started having issues last night with them!
Thank you. Appreciate the reply. I don't want to waste my time trying to do them if they are broken. Thanks again.

Teach him to cook, clean, do his own laundry, and for god's sake make him shoot for A's and B's, both are easily obtainable just by doing the homework and some studying. just my opinion, but as a parent you have to stay on top of them, unless they prove they are trust worthy. But as I said this is my opinion and every kid is different

Catfish, I agree with everything you just said! He's learning to cook. He is learning chores (he can now clean a bathroom all by himself, sweep and mop a floor, does dishes, vacuums, and dusts his own room). We're still working on the laundry thing but I still got 6 years. He asked me to teach him laundry so we're in the middle of that. And yes, if he gets A's and B's I'm fine with it. If he gets a C and tried his HARDEST I will be ok with that. But nothing below that. Ever. He wants to go to college and D's and F's aren't going to get him into a decent school.

Thank you for your opinion! It helps to have mine validated at times as I'm doing this all alone. I think I'm doing a fine job but sometimes...just sometimes...I question myself and my opinions :wink:
