When he was a toddler, I'd do the childcare most days and he was always a bit of a ____. I did try and ____ a bit of discipline into him, but I'm not sure it really happened at home. My son would shout and ____ him off, but then he'd ____ into tears and his mother would comfort him - so totally ____ messages. I knew it would come to no good, but you can't really ____, can you? Not that he's all bad. He's helped me out sometimes since I've been ____ on my feet. But really, if it's true, I hope they treat him severely. It's what he needs to get back on the straight and ____. The frustrating thing is he's a bright ____, but I would say he has a stubborn ____ and he's been prone to ____ and answering back. I remember once I asked him to change desks to sit next to this girl and he just wouldn't - just refused ____ - and then we got into this ridiculous confrontation with neither of us willing to ____ down. I had to call the Head in the end. So yeah, I guess it doesn't entirely surprise me he's ended up in this kind of trouble. What should happen now? Well, he should obviously be punished, but after that I'd still give him another chance rather than ____ him permanently. I'm sure he'll learn. Oh yeah. Hugely talented and I would've thought he could go all the way and turn professional, so this has come as a big shock. Maybe there's more to it than appears to be the case. He certainly ____ himself well here. You know, I ____ them hard, but he's just taken that in his ____ and done everything I've asked of him. He's had the ____ dispute on the pitch, but I always took that to be part of the game rather than something particular to him. He ____ that his parents were going through a rough ____ and I was aware that he had a few issues at school, but I think training and matches were always an escape from that and I made sure he was always focused. Hopefully this is just a ____ rather than the end of his career prospects. I've been treating him since he came in here. He suffered some quite severe ____, but the operation went very well. It helped he was in ____ good health for someone of his age and although he's a little ____ now, I'd expect him to make a complete recovery. We're going to monitor him for a few more days, but we'll probably ____ him next week. From what I understand, he's still a bit confused about what happened, but he seems to think the young man who was arrested had actually come to his ____. He's in my class and we kind of went out for a while. He can turn on the ____ and that, but he was just too unreliable. When it ____ to it, the only thing he was committed to was his football. We'd arrange something, but then it'd be like, 'Oh, the coach wants to put us through our ____', or 'Coach says we're getting ____. Gotta stay on', 'Early night. Coach says I've gotta ____ my energy for the game.' Tttch! I said you might as well go out with coach cos you've let me ____ too often. I would've probably stayed with him if he'd apologised, but he's too proud, ____. Just walked away. It was cold. It's been awkward in class. I actually saw him the night it happened at this friend's party. I don't know what was up with him. He was acting strangely - ____ at the people I was with - and there was like a bit of a ____, but I still doubt he'd do something like that.
