dialog_text_list: Nope.  And I would never had said so either.  Uh, but, uh, they managed to get through, although not always with flying colors.  Uh, in fact, one of the incidents I was thinking of that my son had.  Uh, he was struggling with senior English and I had a meeting with the, uh, vice principal and the English instructor, and, [swallowing] uh, she showed me a paper that he had just handed in.  And she told me what she had requested.  And I read it and while it had, you know, a few little grammatical problems, it wasn't very long and so forth.  I thought it had some nice, well thought out, uh, parts to it. Uh-huh. She gave him an F on that paper.  And I thought, well now, here you have a student who is trying to pass, who is struggling with your subject and you give them an F on something that doesn't seem that bad to me.  What are you telling that student?  You're telling them that, hey, you might as well forget it, #you know.#
h: SpeakerB agreed with the instructor that his son did bad on a paper.
