Cause she got a big fat D in math as her final grade. The problems with math have been building over the last couple of years, so it was time for action or risk her having to repeat a grade. I refuse to raise a child who does poorly in school. Around here you either live up to your potential in school or dad makes you live up to your potential in school. There's three ways of doing things around these parts; the right way, the wrong way, and Dad's way. (Dad's way is not always as hard as that may appear.)

I hired a math tutor for Zac one summer; that cured him for good! It's not that he couldn't learn Algebra; he just didn't want to. After we had this nerdy college student coming twice a week for a while, he amazingly cracked down and learned it really quick so we wouldn't have to have her come back anymore!

If she had been a little cutie he probably would have faked learning anything, just so she would come back! Boys are like that, ya know.

Yeah, she was definitely a math nerd, and not one he wanted to drool over.
