[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The girl is going to have a "B" average in these classes.  It isn't like she flunked herself out on her b*tt.

I think it's time to step back and take a chill pill Op. [/quote]

Nearly flunked all exams. I don't know anyone who fails high school classes. Maybe kids that never show up, I guess?[/quote]

Logical consequences are good to a point.

A friend's DD went to a midwestern college on a huge scholarship and flunked out. She decided to take a break while in college and have fun.... Well she got kicked out, came home, went to CC and worked to pay for it because her mom said, NO effing way are we paying for college for you. She got straight A's at CC and transferred to a competitive college, where she did well and graduated with honors. Her mom helped pay for the competitive college, but not for the CC. She felt her daughter had to learn how to stand on her own two feet. It was not pretty for the mom (or the daughter) for a while, but in the end, it worked out.

As long as you are certain your DD is just pissing away her college chances, OP, then don't give her a second chance and let her learn the hard way from her mistakes. But make sure, because you don't want her to resent you forever. [/quote]
