When you live in the country or in a small town, you are pretty well known. As a side job, my dad sells farm insurance, so he knows every farmer and they know me. I can't go into a store in town without someone saying, "Oh, you're Roy's boy. My how you've grown." It's okay when you're shopping for something other than diapers. Then, its best to let your parents buy them.
But if I do something wrong, I can't get away with anything. Somebody is going to recognize me. My dad found out about me playing in the railroad tressel last Saturday. So I lost my computer for the rest of the week. I'm at school now, but no computer at home.
To me that is worse than being spanked or grounded. When you live in the country, being grounded means nothing, because I don't go anywhere. It is just too far to walk. The town is 25 miles away. And being sent to my room, where my computer is, is no punishment. But taking away my computer, that hurts!!!

I don't really get grounded. Well not too often any ways. When I say I got grounded it means no computer. Cuz of winter & evry thing my father doesn't like to keep me indoors. He'd rather kick me out doors. And he won't keep me from going some place that's edu cational. But if he's going to town for some thing I'll have to stay with our neigh bour while he goes to town.
Cuz most of my friends are online Daddy doesn't like to ground mefor more than a day. Mostly I get sent to my room . No electronics there. May be my personal c.d. player but I don't wanna get caught using that ! I'd rather get spanked than grounded too but it's not so bad. When I get grounded or sent to my room I get to do alot of reading.And thats good too.
Hey L'Roy,How long u grounded for? Your lucky : home school ! I can't even use the computer at school. Except for school work 'course.

If you think the mods are completely brain-dead, put this in you sig.

I can't use my computer at home until Saturday.
I'm not in home school. I thought you were. I'm in a really small public school. Only 15 in my class, and only about 100 in the whole school: Grades 1,2,5,6,7,8. (Grades 3 an 4 go elsewhere.)
I was wondering how other kids do with home schooling.

Hey L'Roy
you go on this site at school? Do people at your school know about your problem? That's pretty brave and bold to do that!!

I get on the computer at school when no one is around. My school is small, 2 rooms upstairs and 2 rooms downstairs, one of which is the cafeteria. The 3rd and 4th graders go to another school about the same size.

Daddy's Boy,
What is your day like? Does your dad teach you? What subjects are you studying? What gives you the most trouble? What subject do you like most?

What is my day like:
I get up about 5, shower, and feed the 8 cats and change their cat sand. I go outside and feed the chickens. Then catch the bus. I'm on the end of the bus route, so I and the girl across the street get on first. We are both school cops. I'm a lieutenant this year. My friend on the other bus is the captain. When we get to school, we have a half hour to play before the bus makes its second round with other kids. Inside school, we sit with the 7th grade, and the teacher alternates with both grades teaching math, language, writing, history, and science. We even get graded on phy ed, but we just play outside. (My teacher is also the Principal, so we get interrupted if he has to discipline another student in the school.) His daughter is also in my class, and she is cute. We have a morning recess, lunch, an afternoon recess, and 1/2 hour after school to play. We play softball or basketball outside, or it rains, we read or use the computer inside. Then back on the bus. Now, as a school cop, I walk the 1st and 2nd graders off the bus and watch for cars before letting them cross the road. I also break up any fights and write names to report to the Principal if anyone acts up. In a small school, you get to know everyone and who is a troublemaker.
When I go home, I gather the eggs from the chickens, which gets tricky and they peck at me for stealing their eggs. Then, I fool around outside with my brother and sister, riding bikes, going for a walk in the woods, or playing with the computer. I like to play chess and Sponge Bob typing on the computer. Then, its supper time, help with the dishes, computer if there is time, and bed by 9pm. (I usually can get most of my homework done in school while the teacher is teaching the other class.) This Friday at school, we are going on an outing to plant trees.
