yes, site back up but still no results....still says "processing!"

And now their site is down again! What is going on??? :confused:

We didn't do that Interest Explorer, but I am planning to next year. Maybe I should have gone with another company-like Brewer testing...they cost more but don't take 6-8 weeks.

I can access the site, but the results still say "processing..."

I don't think they should tell people "Ten days" if they are not able to process the tests in 10 days!

All the more reason for a 2 hour daily nap for everyone!

I agree about the 2 hour nap every afternoon for the whole family! It will save your sanity!

I want to check but I can't even get to the site!!! GRRR!

I can't even get to the BJU site! Can anyone else?

I think the kids who bullied that grandmother are not socialized...and that since schools are failing to properly socialize kids, all kids should be homeschooled. :D

I found this link to her website. http://www.raisinggodlytomatoes.com/ch04.php Looks like you can read the book online, free.

No, there ARE Things you could do besides wait. Check out that tomato staking lady-she has great advice!

I use these: http://www.camisecret.com/Default.asp?bhcp=1 You can get them at Walmart or your local pharmacy.

I think this concept is from a book, isn't it?

Somewhere on the internet there are boot camp directions that a lady wrote but I am not sure where to find them...maybe someone else can tell you or give the link.

You don't have to give more chores as a consequence. You could take away free time, have the child sit in a chair and do nothing, you could have the child write lines, or lose TV or video games, etc.

For kids who are say, 9 and up, if it is something they should know to do by now because it is part of a daily routine, I would give a consequence for forgetting to do it. If my 11 year old "forgets" to take out the trash, I don't remind him-I give him a consequence. If my 13 year old DD "forgets" to clean the kitchen after she makes herself lunch, she gets a consequence. They are never going to take ownership and do what THEY KNOW TO DO if you keep nagging. At what point would they be motivated to take responsibility and remember on their own if you are always telling them/reminding them/nagging them to do it?

Yes! Forgot about vision issues. I would bring him to a developmental optometrist and get his vision tested. After vision therapy, he will likely make huge strides in his reading.

FTI-skipping little words when reading orally is a huge red flag for dyslexia.

I agree about getting him tested. He has a lot of symptoms of a learning disability. If you get him tested, then you will know what is going on and be able to get help for him before he gets behind and struggles even more.

I keep seeing people say things like, "The garden needs weeded" or "The laundry needs washed." What happened to the words "to be?"

If he has not been exposed to fractions, adding numerals with 4 digits, money, division, multiplication, etc (which cannot all be done orally) then I am not surprised he didn't do well on the math portion of the test. I guess I don't see why you would test him when you know he has not done much formal written work.

I agree--get another test and give it to him at home. That way you will know for sure exactly what the problem is.

There is treatment, yes. But in the case of my friend, her husband's testosterone levels are perfectly normal, and she says that he still doesn't have much of a libido.
