@"Jem. <3 <3 <3 <3

Thanks Fly <3
That's exactly it! :-) :-)

Jem don't blame yourself you did what you thought right at the time <3

The boys he goes about with aren't bad boys GP. But his main role model is a bit aimless. It's more that he didn't go out anywhere until just over a year ago, so it's all new to him.

Perhaps it wouldn't be such a big deal, had he had more friends when he was younger.

Jemima - I agree with Fly. Maybe courting his girlfriend could be the problem or has he got in with the wrong crowd at school.

GP

It's more that I spoilt him Fly :-|

The girls had to do everything for themselves from a very young age. I used to think daughter was cruel, but now they CAN stand on their own 2 feet! Well, for the most part anyway, and if they don't, tough is her attitude, but it has worked!

Cos he had so many problems when he came to us, I overprotected him.

Oh yes!

It's THE LUNCH! Make sure he puts his hand in his pocket GP! And a couple of pints too! :-D :-D :-D :-D

Until he discovered girls Jem :-|

Thank you GP :-) :-)

He has, by all- us, Mum, school, even his sister. She has dyslexia very badly, but works very hard. She even takes extra after school lessons, and a college morning on top of school!

He never used to be like this!

GP he is a Real friend ;-)

Yes Jem...did a shop yesterday to keep us going...well keep the Darlinks going :-D

Got to pick Princess up shortly :-(

I suppose you have tried sitting him down and giving him a good talking to...tell him how it's making you feel Jem, and maybe when he has important stuff on at school not to let him stay over at girlfriend the previous evening :-D <3

Morning Ann :-) <3 ;-) we have had no snow yet but the wind and rain are due back

GP

Hi Fly :-) <3 ;-) He might let me have beans with my egg and chips. :-D :-D :-D ;-)

Hi Jemima :-) <3 ;-) My heart goes out to you regarding the attitude of your Grandson. If he doesn't make the effort at school he will get nowhere in life. He needs to have a good talking to about the situation. <3 <3

GP

Hiya Starlight :-) <3

Are you all stocked up?

Ooooeeeerrrr Ann :-0

Aw poor Jem <3 <3

Morning GP <3

Oooooo it's started to snow :-0 :-0

Get them phoned Jem <3

Morning GP :-D <3 what a nice friend you have enjoy <3

I shall have to phone the school. I did send an email to The Head of Year about his exams before, because I was worried they clashed with hospital appointments, but he didn't bother to email me back :-| :-| :-|

To be honest, these blooming exams are ridiculous. GSCEs in year 10 (our Form 4) and MOCKS in the beginning of year 11 :-S :-S :-S
Then partial GSCEs all through the last 2 years. Extra exams. It's ridiculous. In my day, you did them (O levels) at the end of Form 5 (Year 11), with normal exams twice a year to keep you on your toes. A pass was 1-6.7-9 was a fail. Everyone knew where they stood!

Thanks Fly <3


Morning GP :-) :-) :-)

Good morning Mersey and Everyone :-) :-) :-D :-D <3 <3 ;-) ;-)

It is bright and sunny but very cold with a slight breeze.

Off to the shops later then my pal is treating me to lunch today as he won
£693.00 at the club on Sunday night.

Enjoy yourselves wherever you are.

GP (BRB :-D :-D ;-))
