You could be a good parent and let your son do his own work. If he waited until the last minute to say anything about it, let him get the F for the project. That way, he can learn about taking charge of his responsibilities now instead of trying to get him to learn it when he's in his twenties.

It's call accountability and responsible parenting.

More parents should try it these days.

I don't remember what the hell I did but I have a friend with a kid that just did an experiment in fourth grade I think - not for a science fair, just in class. But it could be adapated and it's still pretty timely/current (BP spill). The premise: what happens when you mix oil and water and what happens to substances in water vs. oil and water? After looking at what happens to certian substances, they then looked at what materials are best at soaking up the oil. I assume they just used vegetable oil or something. Could be cool.

Maybe just ask him "Can you think of something that would be interesting and relevant to current events?" You could mention the hurricane and the oil spill. "What about the oil spill? What could you test there?"

Just a thought.

      I am curious to see if Warren is the elite player that the Huddle Warren stans believe. I am always fairly wary of these first round TE's.

      The Rossi things isn't going away, either... https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/3312416/unfinished-business-7-players-to-watch-in-back-half-of-nhl-offseason The Wild and Rossi shouldn't be having any trouble hammering out an extension. Rossi, an RFA turning 24 in September, recorded the second-most points on the team last season (60 in 82 games). The smart, skilled, highly competitive 5-foot-9 Austrian is a homegrown top-six center. Minnesota has $10 million in cap space and no other significant spots to fill to finalize its 2025-26 roster. Problems lurk below the surface, however. Coach John Hynes demoted Rossi to the fourth line in the playoffs, dropping his nightly usage from 18 minutes in the regular season to 11 in the first-round series loss to Vegas. GM Bill Guerin's top to-do list item at the moment is to lock up Kirill Kaprizov. The superstar winger, who's been eligible for an extension since July 1, is due for Leon Draisaitl-type money (around $14 million average annual value) starting in 2026-27. Guerin has said there's no rush to sign, trade, or match an offer sheet for Rossi. If he stays, a short-term extension makes sense, since it gives both player and team flexibility. If he leaves, a trade is far more likely than an offer sheet. Half of the league could use a second-line center, and Rossi still has upside. The Hurricanes desperately need to upgrade at 2C (Jesperi Kotkaniemi isn't going to cut it) and have plenty of cap space. Ditto for the Sabres, who picked Jack Quinn one spot before Rossi went to the Wild in the 2020 draft. Mammoth bench boss Andre Tourigny coached Rossi in junior, and they don't have as much wiggle room, but trading top-six winger Nick Schmaltz (plus a pick) could make the math work. Guerin wants to make a so-called "hockey trade" here.
