[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP Stop helping him with the college process. He needs to own that. Either they want it or they don't. I am a firm believer in personal responsibility; they have to own it. His actions have consequences he treated you badly unless he apologize, he is on his own. Don't sign him up for anything again. Do not ask him if his apps are done. Do not read his email. Do not help him period. [/quote] Some kids need more help than others. This is bad advice for a teen already majorly stressed out. OP you are the mom. Forgive, forgive, forgive, forgive then forgive some more. He will remember you for sticking by him during his darkest days -- or he will remember that you gave up on him and let him fail.[/quote]
