[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC does not have much exposure to higher level academics. Not at our flagship state school. Getting poor advice. Refusing to change schools or associate with stronger students. Good grades first year. Lots of Bs this year. To me, he is no better off right now than the stronger students from his HS. I blame the people around him. Pardon typos please. [/quote] I'm sorry but he's too old for you to "blame the people around him." You can advise him, then you have to let it go. Tell him that if he fails out of college because of bad choices, he's not moving home--job or armed forces. I know it's hard when they're young adults--but you do him no favors by not making him take full responsibility for his decisions and the outcomes. [/quote]
