[quote=Anonymous]I would take him. Maybe travel is his thing! Have him find the cheapest, easiest flight, book the hotel or air b and b, and plan the itinerary. That is a thing. We had one ds who tried everything- every sport, music, scouts, theater, and because of his issues was just average or below average ( his peer group in nova). We worked with what we had. Now college grad, engaged, normal job, and really happy! Our other ds, excelled at everything ( sports, academics, friends). Just meet him where he is. Please believe me, you won’t regret it. If over time, you really think he’s acting entitled discuss. But just seems like he’s different and maybe this is what he’s interested in. The one ds who has excelled at everything also loves travel. In 5 th grade came down one night with an entire international trip planned at a great cost! The other ds and I said no but my ds said yes. It was so good with the plan and cost an aunt asked to take along. So, again, maybe travel will be his thing! For us, it turned into a hs study abroad and a uni abroad for undergrad. If you can afford it, think about it. [/quote]
