[quote=Anonymous]I have a 12 year old (only) and he just meets any bar, does the bare minimum. Based on advice from my siblings that have older kids, it doesn't really matter if he's at the top of his AP Language Arts class or is barely a C in math. Big picture, who cares. Would I like him to work harder, yes. But I am not nagging him anymore and letting him set his own pace. When I was in college, there were kids committing suicide because they were freaking out over grades/GPA. I don't want that, either, obviously. [/quote]
