Ohhhh the ineptitude

SS15 is pretty good at the Arts.  Any sort of drawing, by hand or computer.  He gets compliments from his Arts teacher all the time.  She is trying to encourage him in the Creative Arts direction.  This is the only thing he seems to excel at and be interested in...besides video games.

He has some sort of contest from the local University for Creative Arts.  He needs to fill in the standard info about himself, where he lives, etc.  These are some of the answer he has on the form.  Also some that he does not:

Address Line -  Blank.

Postcode - Blank.  He doesn't know his address...at the age of 15.

County - UK.  He doesn't know the difference between county and country.

Ethnicity (optional) - UK.

This is a young man who will be 16 years old in 4 months.  At 16, I was working and paying rent to my parents.  At 16, I opened my own bank account, driving, paid for my own car insurance and gas, etc.  At 16, I could have literally lived on my own with not too much trouble.

But this skid doesn't know his own flipping address!  FML.

Give him an M&M for every correct answer...as though you were potty training a toddler or housebreaking a puppy. What a tool!

Is this the SS that was watching SM porn? If so, forget the M&M reward, you already know the answer. Yes, I'm evil and going to hell. And I just could not resist Cookie!

The SDs didn't know our address, ages 11 and 13.  I made them memorize it and gave them the reasons.

SD14 now still doesn't know it - she didn't care at the time either.  SD12 has it down.  She can even tell me how to get to our house from school or town.  SD14 never could.  Which I think is good at this point.
