message: Why do all adults associate futile excuses with teens and our homework? When I don’t do my homework, which is rare, I don’t spout out the usual ridiculous "my dog ate it". I do the honest thing and tell the truth about not doing it. Adults should take into consideration that not all teens are slackers. Quite the contrary, actually…get to know a responsible teen and think it over.
