You're a dick.
When isn't he? I'd report his comment for flaming, but staff already knows about his bs, so no use in creating another thread for them to have to review.

For younger people there is so much that is new to them in this phase of their lives. For us, it is pretty cut and dry what we are there for. I was like you in my first semester at Cal I got all A's. I was so hard on myself. I insisted that all papers be done a week in advance where possible so that I could reread them myself after a few days and still have time to revise. After that I relaxed a little .. but only a little.
Also glad to hear you have a good relationship with your stepson's mom. It is really important for the kids.
And if you haven't already put EP on ignore, I suggest you do so.
Mark,
Yes, these kids these days are used to that whole instant gratification thing. They can google or bing something and get an answer within 00000.02 seconds whereas if we wanted to know something it was either go to the library and look it up or if we were lucky, our parents invested in hundreds of dollars for an entire set of Encyclopedia Britannica.
I didn't have a cell phone or a computer in the 80's and was a visual learner. I use Quizlet a LOT and wish I had that when I was in school.
With my stepsons, their mother is totally supportive and even told me to let her know when graduation was so that the boys could be there. I truly appreciate that woman.
As for EP, ignore doesn't work. Especially when his ignorance is quoted and I end up seeing it anyways.
I suppose eventually the staff will tire of his bs and give him a permanent vacation since his last one didn't seem to do any good.
