I feel it is some aspect of how he is being brought up or his teaching. It bothers you.

You aren't sure how to deal with his parents because you don't want to hurt their feelings. I feel it is to do with being materialistic which isn't your way really. Its like they place too much importance on buying stuff for him when they could spend more quality time with him.

Ok The mum is trying to make up for it with presents when he really needs the love. I feel his school work is suffering slightly. I am sure that Mrs Hunt the teacher is here. She would have been very kindly.

Mrs Hunt was a kindly soul....and had grey curly hair and glasses. She was my teacher back in the 50s . 'Mum' does buy him quite a few things. They do fun things together though. Gwyn

Well the message for you Gwyn is just to take an interest in his schoolwork. It may come to light that he is having a little struggle and you will be able to help him. Does he have a granddad?

One he has met once, the other he sees almost daily. Gwyn

Louise Sharpe Report 25 Mar 2007 14:27

The one he sees daily likes football? They should play together if they don't already. Your grandson will be fine. He is a cheeky chappie and they are all fond of him up there in the spirit world.

Thanks Gwyn xx

Grandad doesn't like football, ... but it would be good for both of them to exercise. He's a cheeky chappie certainly ! He is lots of fun. Gwyn

Thank you for your time and patience Louise. I take a keen interest in his school work and will continue to do so. Thanks. Gwyn

Well its good he has such a clever and caring grandma if he does come unstuck.

There have been difficulties with some aspects of learning but they have been and still are being managed with continuing success. I'm not clever, ..just a loving 'Granmum' who wants him to have a happy and good start in life. I appreciate your time. Gwyn
