[quote=Anonymous]That sounds like me now and I did fine in college (Duke) and career. Obvs I brush my teeth but give him a chance to care about the social consequences. Honestly it doesn't sound like you love him for who he is, it sounds like he's not living up to your expectations now, at 13 for christ's sake, and you are panicking already about future not living up to your expectations. Is there anything you like about your son? Maybe focus on that. I grew up in the area and I can tell you with certainty that many "successful" teens end up the most fucked up in the head. To whatever extent you came for sincere anonymous advice and not just justification, consider that your approach may be as much of a threat to your son as his slackerdom. [/quote]
