On the other hand, Sarah has conned convinced her grandparents to let her spend the afternoon with them so she can study. She had all day Friday (no school) and Saturday to study but complains she couldn’t because there are “always” siblings in her room. The last time she was in her room “studying”, I found her having three separate IM conversations on the computer, listening to the stereo and talking on the phone. There were no siblings in the room. She hasn’t studied because she is lazy, not because she has sibs.
At least it is just her grandparents. Mica told the teachers that she couldn’t do her homework because we MADE her watch tv.
It other words… the reason she can’t “study” is because YOU keep interrupting her 😉
