[quote=Anonymous]It's bad, OP, I'm not going to lie. Colleges want the best GPA, and your kid just tanked theirs, through lack of accompaniment by parents and their own impulsivity. I suspect something more is going on than just their health - my teen spent last fall in and out of surgery, and still got straight As everywhere. Is there ADHD? That could explain the impulsivity and lack of planning, organization and follow-through, and also explains their hyperfocus on this other activity. If that's the case, they need a 504 and ADHD meds, to help their brain manage the neurotransmitter issue. Regardless, your kid needs a good one-on-one math tutor over the summer, so they have As next semester. And something has to be done about the lack of focus in non-preferred courses. It's not a good sign that they're focused on just their passion to the point they fail other classes. [/quote]
