…because apparently my 13 year old homeschooler saw no big issue with skipping her two small assignments, and studying for a test, in order to get on the PS3 and play video games with her dad (who is 4 hours away).

I asked him if he was aware that she did not do her homework and he said no he was not; he asked and she told him it was done already.

Yep, you should ALWAYS believe what the teenager tells you when you ask a question.

And this, my friends, is why I am grateful he only sees them once a year. Now I just have to do something about the daily contact, and obvious bad influence, he is having on them.

Technology is not always a blessing; sometimes it is a curse!
