Dan,

I took the wknd off the boards too. Most of the others have already said what I would have, except this: somewhere a few posts back, the mediator or someone told you to set it soon, so the kids won't have too many distractions later in school. As a dad, with kids around the same age, I can say that that is what resonated the most with me.

Not sure about your bambinos, but mine are very different from each other. They are both smart as a whip, but one cares about school and one doesn't. If and when this happens to me, I would want to make the changes as close together as posible (like a band-aid). I don't want the one I have to struggle with about School to get any more discouraged than he is and the other one I want to keep on TCB like he does.

Like we talked about before, the W's are ate-up already. Making them mad about something as fundamentally common sense as this isn't going to make much more than a ripple in the surf crashing down on them already.

My $.02

Glad you had a good wknd bro. Sounds like fall's in the air.
