[quote=Anonymous]I have a Bachelors degree in nursing. I work PT as an RN. My son is 14. He is gifted, IQ 135. He is also lazy and gets mediocre marks. When I have talks with him about getting into a good college and getting a good job, he says things like: How much money do you make? I will make way more. You are only rich because dad makes a lot of money. When I talk about him reaching his potential, he says things like: Why didn't YOU go to medical school? Why didn't YOU reach your potential? Oh, wow you're a nurse, big deal. Then he will remark that I am not gifted and he is and he is smarter than me. This is utterly disrespectful and I'm clearly just venting. Any advice? [/quote]
