[quote=Anonymous]When I saw the title of this thread, I thought maybe the kid committed a crime, or was hooked on drugs, or is a terrible human being. But no, it seems he or she is a normal human being, who has had some great accomplishments to date, and is living a very normal (arguably nice) life as the 19/20 year old person he or she is. I’m wondering if conveying unexpected emotions such as disappointment and depression at your kid’s accomplishments to date is the very crux of what is causing your child to not be going gangbusters right now. I personally freeze up when people are hammering me with unwarranted pressure and angst. If you ease up on that, you might find you both will have a happier and healthier existence. [/quote]
