About a month ago, Chris added me as a friend on facebook. Consequently I've been getting facebook notices demanding that i accept "cityville" requests. I use to ignore them like any other trivial request on facebook until during a tutoring session, Chris asked "do you play Cityville?" That same lesson he seized his five minute break and used it as an opportunity to show me the wonderful world of cityville. In those brief few minutes, i learned that in order to suceed and to move forth in the game of Cityville, the player must send requests to fellow friends on facebook and those friends must accept said requests. So therefore (concluded Chris) i must henceforth accept all his cityville requests as my duty of being his facebook friend.
Today Chris messaged me on facebook:
C: Hey Vicky
V: Hi Chris, Whats up?
C: Can you accept my request?
(a cityville request pops up seconds after)
V: Done
C: Thanks!
V: Playing cityville instead of studying math?!?!
C: I am doing my homework while playing.
V: hmm...well as long as you're being productive with your work.
C: yaaa
The things I do for this kid....

Dude, I think you should be meaner. There is no way on earth can anyone be on FB and still be productive academically.
You're too nice. I would have totally lectured him.
My kids are going to hate me.

if i were his mother i would lecture him...but i dont think its my place to lecture him outside of tutoring sessions. :/ anyways i'll keep him focused with the hour and a half i have with him. (:
