My son gets a homework packet every week. Three pages stapled together. Today he decided to be _clever_. He _cut out_ one of the pages and _glued it_ to another page, so that he wouldn't have to do the front of one page and the back of another.Like I wouldn't notice? And, even more importantly, like the teacher wouldn't notice? Absolutely incredible performance š¤£Talmbout "I don't know why it's wet" and "the page ripped out when my teacher grabbed it from me."Some serious effort went into this attempted deception. Dare I say, more effort than would have been required to do the homework that he avoided!

@fourmajor I'd be mad if he gave up halfway through - at least he was creative and determined enough to follow through with a plan of his own devising.Maybe someday he'll photocopy a single side of the homework and say that's all he got? Who knows.

@lucifargundamYeah eventually he'll be smarter than me and come up with something really great!

@fourmajor Every parents goal should be to have their child surpass them without sacrificing happiness.
