Savage son

I tiptoe to Ash's room often during the first half of the day hoping to catch him unawares while he browses YouTube videos during class.
"Amma, you have to be smarter than that. I can quickly change the page by the time you reach my desk".

I settle down on the bed behind to watch him. The mike is on mute and the camera is off in Teams, which is an advantage for the kids. 
The teacher is busy explaining how to go about the vacation homework next two months. 
Why holiday, I groan.
Why holiday homework, the son groans.
