POW #4

Dear Portia,

My husband Caeser won't listen to me, I told him that I had this really bad dream and that I feel like he is going to get into some trouble. Once I told him this he didn't want to stay home but then he finally decided we was going to listen to me, but once his friends came over they convinced him my dream met something different so he left anyways. It really frustrates me because I really have a feeling something really bad is going to happen to him and he won't listen and he doesn't think this dream means anything. I feel like I can't do say anything to him because he wont listen to anything I tell him. he is very stubborn and does only what he wants. I really need some advice on how to get through to him so if you could write back that would be great!


Dear Calpernia,

I know husbands can be very frustrating sometimes, but you just have to find a way to get through to him. I suggest you sit down with him and discuss everything that bothers you about him, and try to make him understand that he needs to trust you when you tell him the dream was bad. Tell him that if he doesnt start trusting you more that your relationship wont get any better or even worse it might end your marriage. Next time this happens dont let him leave the house, say give me so authority around here and be able to make some decisions on your own. I hope I was some help write me back if there is anymore problems I would be glad to help.

AOW #3

Dear Dr. Berry,

Why in the world would someone want to go back to school for two extra days of school? We have had six snow days and I heard you want us to go back for two days. We shouldn't have to go back to school for two days because they won't have anything for us to do and everyone's minds by the last week of school is on summer and no one will be focused.

Some people might say that we have enough time to accomplish more ciriculum in that two extra day time period, but I disagree I don't accredit two days is enough to accomplish a learning trait that I will understand.

The teachers will not have much school work planned out to keep the children intrested enough to not have the word summer in the back of their minds. The teachers think that they can plan out fun activities for the students to participate in but the students will most likely have no motivation to do them. Some students won't even come to school because they don't feel the need to come to school for two days, and some might have already planned vactions right after school gets out. Some people will come to school the two extra days but some won't so the people who come will be ahead of the ones that don't come. Not only are the teachers not going to have things for us to do it's not our fault it snowed 20 inches, so you shouldn't make us pay by staying two extra days and the kids won't be focused enough to do school work.

The students won't be focused enough to do school work and nothing will get turned it. The teachers need a break also they wont want to make up assignments for the kids to do. It't not worth going to school for the two extra days because we have already moved on from the assignments we missed caused by the snow days. Most likely we would just be goofing off not doing any serious work so we might as well just get the two days off of school, if they think it's that big of a deal we can just take two days off our spring break. If you really sat down and thought about this you would think two days isn't worth going to school and cutting into our summer vaction.

There may be a possiblity we will have school for the two extra days, but there is only one choise that would make the most sence. You should choose not to make us stay after the extra two days because we there is nothing for else to do and the student won't try and they will be so ready for summer school will be the last thing on their mind

Love, Bailey
