[quote=Anonymous]BTDT but had way more serious issues than grades. DS had As in middle school and ended 9th with Ds, Cs and I think 1 B. We had lots of meetings, him skipping school and a world of trouble. So, here’s how you can benefit from our thousands spend on individual and family therapy. We were actually told to back off, which went against everything we were doing. But know your kid. Is your kid going to respond to taking away his cell or dig in more and make it worse? Ours dug in and did nothing when we took things away. We had to change to parenting a teen and give him control. He’s finishing up senior year and had better grades in 10th and all As in 11th and 12th. He’s had his choice of colleges. Many great ones, and we found colleges don’t care much about 9th grade since he had such a strong upward trend and great EC. TLDR - he had to grow up and we had to change our parenting style.
