Sick, Sad & Demotivated - 4th Quarter Spiral of a Straight A Student

My son was a straight A student for 3 straight quarters this school year. Then I got a 4th quarter progress report with four F's on it.

I responded by sending my son 3 classic "Dad" texts:

"Hey what's going on in science?"
screenshot of F grades circled in red
"Please call me when you are free."

The reply was unexpected and jarring.

I hope you find this short episode valuable and thought provoking.
