Homework, The One Desk, and kids of all ages

<< < (5/7) > >>

funkilla:
The difference between YAs and 6s/12s is that YAs don't put their assignments down after class. They only whip them out when directed to do assignment (or if dormie/YA townie, whenever the hell they feel like it). I'm no code junkie, but I bet you that's definitely part of why they the do assignments anywhere there's a table/desk and chair. Kids of all ages, on the other hand, have to drop the homework somewhere before they do something. Or I'm just stating the obvious at this point.

Did you have any errors when the kids (teens in particular) got off the schoolbus with M&G, Joe?


Not that I recall.  Only had errors with mousing over the homework.



I must have had something conflicting with it then, because I've taken it out and it's stopped. :-\

I didn't have kids putting their homework on the left side of the desk at all until I installed AL (although I have neighte BV nor FT so it could have been borked in one of those).  If the right side wasn't free, they'd put it on the floor even if the left side was.

Lately, I've gotten annoyed enough with homework that I finally downloaded some of Inge's school hacks.  Now all of my 6s and 12s go to Prep School, and do not bring home any homework.  As an added bonus, they stay in school for the whole day and do not come home to whine about lack of fun at 1/3 PM.

*Rolls eyes* I don't mind being corrected but I was trying to be funny, no reason to be a complete fucking asshole.


I didn't mean to be a "complete fucking asshole", I simply stuck my foot in my mouth by being far too abrupt, probably because I was half asleep.  Half asleep or not, I'm sorry.


At this point, I've basically given up letting kids put homework on the desk.  Actually, I gave it up a long time ago.  I stick a computer and something decorative on the desk.  They drop their homework on the floor near the desk and sit on the floor to do it.  :P  At least I don't have to go in and out of buy mode to place their homework where they can reach it.

Oi oi oi, what's all this apologising and being nice to each other business? Eh? You two better watch it, I've got my eye on you.  :D
