I love this for this child.

This story reminds me of when I (an A student if ever there was) received a B+ in a high school math class and promptly asked my teacher “What gives?” He also seemed kind of surprised and looked through his grading notes and told me that it was the result of my homework deduction for having missed a few assignments over the course of the semester. I, a precocious teen and daughter of two teachers (my dad’s last question before I went to bed every night was “Did you do your homework?”) fixed him with a steely gaze and said, “Mr. Audet, think it through. Have I ever not turned in my homework? Would I ever just…not do my assignments?” He sort of blinked and rubbed his eyes, looked back at his log book, then back at me and said, “You’re right. I must have just missed checking you off those days. My bad.” My grade was restored to its rightful A, and I never used trigonometry again.
