[quote=Anonymous]I'd back off because it's a learning experience for her. She saw that without your oversight, she could still pass. She will also realize she was very close to failure. It's a good lesson for her and one she will be able to use when gauging how much effort to put into different things along the way. In other words, Without your saying anything, she may choose to put in MORE effort next time. Because the Martin of passing seems to close for her. But at this age, if you step in, that lesson might get lost. Another PP is right. We as adults have to make decisions all the time about what we put tons of effort into, and what we can cut back on. We have to do that to manage everything we have and stay sane. Yeah, is he a little disappointed if that's all she had to work on during the summer. Especially if she has no job or other obligations (unknown). But again, view it as a lesson in life management skills. [/quote]
