As soon as I logged on to my sons school laptop and opened google chrome browser pop ups keep coming up. He is doing a end of the second quarter assesment and every few minutes during this very important test a site pops up.
During homeroom out internet went out so we missed about 15 minutes of the science class. Thankfully there was plenty of time alloted to finish all 4 of the requires science quarter 2 assesments.
Thankfully today there is no PLT as my kids have a dentist appointment we need to leave home by 1.
When we get home tonight I have to drop my van off at the garage and walk home. They are putting four new tires on it tomorrow morning.

When my day starts out difficult I worry more about leaving the house so I am hoping the roads will be okay on our way to the dentist today.

The pop ups every few seconds did make me feel the exact same way lol. I told my son I wanted to throw it across the room I was so irritated. I could never be a computer person. I have no patience when they don't work perfectly!

@DianneN I take his school work very seriously and so I am always worried about missing classes or assignments. It is shocking to me how little some of the kids do during the online work. These are third graders the parents need to stay with them to keep pushing them to stay focused. The only time I do not sit right next to my son while he is doing class is during homeroom sometimes. I do dishes and he writes and online writing prompt like a journal entry. I am close enough I can help him spell words and help him with Grammer and if he lays down I can tell him to sit back up lol

Both of my kids need to brush better in the back which I knew was the case with my daughter. My son tries at least and takes his time brushing he just missed the back spots. He does have a small cavity between a back tooth but it is a baby tooth that will fall out within a year so they are just going to keep an eye on it for now.

@Tina30219 Some baby teeth stay in many years and the bacteria in the cavity can fit other teeth is why they treat the baby teeth. Since this cavity us very small they are just watching it. If it was one he would have a few more years she would have filled it. Actually if baby teeth rot bad enough they can fit the adult teeth underneath them too.
We have never had any tablets to chew to see where they are missing brushing. That might be helpful and now that you mention that I remember hearing there is a mouthwash that works like that. I will have tinder where I can buy it.

@shagginRight why mess with filling it when it is a baby tooth and it is going to fall out anyways. I told my kids dentist when they we're little when they had a cavity in a baby tooth that they was not going to do nothing because it would come out anyways. Do they still do the floride tablets where you chew them to see where they missed brushing?

That would be annoying to have the pop ups popping up. 
There is always something isn't there?
