got the little big man's 1st quarter report card last saturday. was good. as expected, his highest grade was in math and phys ed. his homeroom teacher, ms. torrefranca informed me that academically, he was doing good. their only problem with him is his being talkative in class.
i can't deny. my son is very opinionated and can't shut his mouth. he will say everything and anything that comes to his mind, no matter what the situation or the circumstance. he will explain when he's being reprimanded. he will comment on other people's conversations. he will always have something to say on somebody else's business. i know for a fact that he did not get that from me. i am one of the most tactful people i know. it can't have come from me, no sir. the hubby, although he vehemently and laughingly denies this, is to blame.
teacher clare, his tutor told me exactly the same thing. i was informed that he is as good as the 1st honor student in her tutor class and she's confident about his intellectual capabilities. but her only complaint was that he can't seem to contain his thoughts and comments to himself. though whenever he is reminded, he immediately says sorry and keeps quiet, for a while, until he forgets again to mind his own business.
so this morning, on his first day back to school, i reminded the little big man to try shutting his trap for at least when he isn't being talked to. with a daily dose of that, i am a little bit confident he's gonna be in the honor roll next quarter. i'm keeping my fingers crossed.
