[quote=Anonymous]I agree with talking to a doctor, but I assume she had her yearly physical.

I don't think it is reasonable to assume a 3.0-3.5 student is not going to a "good college".

Maybe sending that message has made her lack motivation, she can't be the student YOU want her to be so why try.

3.0-3.5 is outstanding actually for a person that is "not a great student". Are there learning disabilities?

I would not say, you have to "build your resume"... it very fake and kids are sensitive to that.

Tell her she needs to pick 1 healthy thing to do, she dropped soccer, fine (do you know why she did that?) but she needs to replace it with something else.

She also needs to pick one more club to do or one more non-athletic activity.... volunteer, drama, team manager... something.

You probably need to readjust your opinion of good colleges, if you are sending the message that Towson (for example) is not a "good college" then you are probably the source of her lack of motivation. [/quote]
