[Experiment 6-2-6]

Somehow the fact that the attorney for the student, the mother, gave a student the "A+", is a bit of a conflict. I mean, somewhere somehow doesn't someone have to approve the work study situation?

Sad and pathetic at best..

Right, that's where my train of thought is leading me. How do we even know this kid deserved that grade? I can't totally agree with you, lepton, on the question of impropriety on the mother's behalf as being an "artifical barrier." You may be right and it's nothing, but maybe this kid is trying to have his cake and eat it, too, by getting the A+ grade from his mom as well as a nice court victory and $25,000 in his pocket.
