Two weeks ago, SJ again had tutoring with Mrs. Banks. Apparently, he was very tired that morning. My dad had a lot of trouble waking him to get ready to go to Mrs. Banks' house. He was very irritated with "Pappy" that morning.
Mrs. Banks said when SJ arrived at her house he was very antsy. He told her that he was irritated with my dad for waking him up to come to tutoring. After a few minutes, she was able to get him to settle down enough to read. She told me that he wasn't interested in sitting in a chair at all and she had to repeatedly remind him to put his cell phone away.
With his irritation and non-cooperation, she felt that he missed some of the major parts of the chapters that they were reading (Chapters 7-9). She told me not to worry. She planned on reviewing those chapters at their next session.
I felt horrible that he was so difficult for her. I apologized and told her I would talk to him. She seemed unfazed by his behavior. She has already raised three teenagers and is a sixth grade teacher. She told me not to worry about it. Bless her!
