[quote=Anonymous]ADHD sounds likely, tbh. Or substance abuse? Or a combo? I think you probably need to dig into what went wrong to figure out a plan. What about just getting a job, any hourly job (every store is hiring right now), and getting some structure that way? Then the kid could add community college classes or local college classes little by little. Some people just do much better with structure than with a lot of free time (aka the traditional college experience). There are many paths to a successful adult life. I would just focus on rebuilding, work experience, routine, and becoming reliable at work. I wouldn't focus on career planning or anything bigger. Hourly jobs can be good for developing motivation to want something easier/better.[/quote]
