We have a 15 year old niece living in S.D. My Dominican wife follows her education closely. Recently she failed a class. Took it over and was getting another poor grade and has to take the final exam again. Wife is angry and in the discussion it comes out that the big problem is that "my notebook is missing". She effing loses her school books but sees it as a missing problem thereby evading responsibility. Is this a culturally learned thing? Beginning to think she will not get out of H.S. At 15 I would never try to pull off missing book excuse because it would double the punishment or worse.
Books are not missing you lost it like an idiot.
