[quote=Anonymous]YES! Your son will do fine, if not great! As the mother of a few older boys I can tell you that boys will grow up when they're ready and not a minute before. I found that around 22 they are mature and focused. Maybe a tutor would help him with homework? Maybe a bribe. Rest assure, everything you say to them they hear. Keep talking, especially Dad. As far as the college process, we had to be creative. A state school would not have been a good choice for one of our boys. At the end of the day, his sport got him in to a private Division One school. The coach got him in, but we did not get any money. How far is he willing to go? Colleges like to take kids from far away states. How about the military scholarship program? I don't know much about it, but some kids thrive in that structure. [/quote]
