Mocking and belittling your student isn’t a good look for you. If you can’t take him seriously how will you help. You’re going to need his respect when you shut down his infatuation with you.
Leave Luann alone about her room. Cut the snide remarks. Let her keep it any way she wants to. Ironically, when I said nothing to my kids about their messy rooms, they got sick of the mess themselves and cleaned it up.
When Frank and Nancy make “comments” about Luann’s room, they set a trap for Luann. If she cleans her room, THEY take credit for it and Luann gets none.
Someone said it last week, this is feeling like it is getting cringe worthy. I hope Frank’s script includes putting Luann back on the straight and narrow. Maybe Bernice can straighten her out.
It’s nice to see Luann so happy and satisfied. Being a tutor is no more a pain for her and even Frank is (in his way) supportive. Maybe this will change when she understands what Axel think it’s happening, maybe not. But for now, let her be happy ♡
Getting back to LuAnn, I didn’t realize she was so smart. She seemed to know a lot about Lincoln and the Gettysburg Address. The way she handled Axle she would make a good teacher. Axle’s motives are another issue.

Careful, you make a joke and she might go Will Smith on you.

So Luann does impressions now?
Looks more like Ed Sullivan to me.

Luann is taking such great pride in her “work” that it’s bound to backfire on her sooner or later.
So.
How long will it be before Lu gets a dozen roses from a “secret admirer?”
(Nah. “Roses” is not Axel’s “style.”)
How long will it be before Axel invites Lu to the next Thundercat concert?
And later, how long will it be before Luann decides to “patch” things up between Axel and Fay(e), just to get him off her back? ;-)

Frank, Luann had a great day then you bring her down.

Instead of Frank’s mug saying “Dad”, it should say, “Dud”.

Well, dad’s not impressed because he has a 13 year old living under his roof. His hint for you to grow up, Luann.

Duck lips. But why should she clean her room? She’s never cleaned it in her entire life. She’s an adult, sort of. Why try to change her now.

With the look he was giving you Luann, he’s not anti-tutor, but he is anti-education and anti-intelligence.

Would that have been Luann’s look if her parents had tried to get her tutored when she was 13?

I made that same face when someone told me wrestling was fake. I haven’t talked to that liar since.
kingsgate408 over 2 years ago
Pretty sure that was real. Otherwise, why do it? Will Smith seemed really lost when he gave his speech.

She’s doing an Ed Sullivan impersonation. Without a doubt. Time for the next phase of Luann’s life.

Will Smith just dropped 26 pounds and is supposedly the best shape of his career. He should have decked Rock. Rock needed Jackie Chan to save his ass.
