173 Do Your Homework When Grace hit her preteen years, however, their relationship became rocky. They argued about Grace keeping her room clean and doing schoolwork and regularly battled over her use of the phone, social media and other technology. The prosecution called Giroux, the caseworker, as its only witness.
