Sometimes my kids really frustrate me...

it seems like it's been a couple of weeks of discipline craziness! not that it's remotely like some of the yucky stuff i've had to deal with in my educational career. no, it's more that i'm tired...and sick and tired. i seriously have some kiddos that really wrestle with honesty. maybe i should say that i really wrestle with their dishonesty...they all too often seem pretty content with it. the outlook from where i stand seems not too peachy. goodness knows i've lost a few to that road, and many of those are still walking fools. the nice thing is that i actually deal with a couple of great parents/guardians...but boy, some of the others???...i think those parents would love to stay in denial. i guess there are just some seasons where i know i have to be a brick wall and at the same time feel like i'm pretty much losing the game.
