What I find funny about when Hypo calls me for advice is that I never give her any. I might ask questions that help her draw her own conclusion, but I figure she's going to do what she really wants to do. She just wants validation that it is ok. She has sent me texts saying "Is it better to skip a class to finish homework for another class or to turn in the homework late?" I'll ask "which one impacts your grade more? Is there an attendance requirement for the class you want to skip? What is the penalty for turning in something late?" She wants me to tell her to skip class. I'm not going to say that. She comes to her own conclusion- which is, of course, skipping class. Really? You're calling your mom for permission to skip a class? I'm not giving you that, but I'm encouraging you to evaluate the consequences and make your best decision.
