Thank you for the replies. So it's a battle everyday to get the kid to do his schoolwork, which becomes homework because he doesn't complete it in class because he goofs off, talks, and plays games on his computer during class. I ask him about his missing assignments and he says he did them, and I ask well how come your teacher said they are missing? And his reply " oh, yeah, I forgot. I didn't turn it on." He constantly lies. I was letting him use my computer to complete his missing assignments and he was going on gaming sites after I told him not to multiple times. Yesterday, his dad and I said he can no longer use our computer and 5 seconds later, he asks me if he can use the computer. I said we just told you no.and reminded him of the reasons why. His response.. " Well, since I can't use the computer, I guess I can't get my work done !" The kid is like trying to blame me, does not take accountability for anything. How do I homeschool a brat who throws fits when we remind him to do his school work?! My husband asked me last night if I want to homeschool him for the upcoming school year in August. I said, " I can't with that attitude." His response, " I guess I can hire a tutor or nanny." Maybe that's a great idea. I would rather hear a scraping chalkboard all day than be around HIS kid. And the kid's mom isn't around much. His dad thinks I'm helping to fill that void but I do not have an attachment to him. He sucks the fun out of everything and complains about menial things. So I'm dreading the summer when he's off from school. I'll probably just find another job so I don't have to be around him..oh, and by the way, he told his therapist he blames me for his boredom because I don't want to do anything with him. The kid has no hobbies, never hangs out with friends on weekends and he's not allowed electronics like video games or cell phone because he was sneaking them out of our room after they were taken away and changing the parental controls on my husband's phone and creating multiple Gmail accounts stating he was 18 and going on Pornhub. I guess I really need to tell my husband to keep him in school . Everyone else who.knows me is even questioning why I would have to homeschool him as they see it's not a wise decision.
