[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on WHY the kid is a B/C student.

Those are average grades. If the kid is charismatic and hard working but of only average or slightly above average intelligence, s/he will be fine! Someone with those grades can easily make it through a college degree in most large universities without remediation. S/he could be a teacher, run a small business, go into politics, have a successful military career via one of the academies...it depends on the kid’s other skills and interests.

If the kid is actually really smart but lazy and uninterested, start praying that something catches his/her attention and provides the motivation that’s intrinsically lacking. The unhappiest people I know are smart, lazy people who end up in jobs that they think are beneath them because they never had the work ethic to do something with their abilities.

If the kid is average in every way, that’s ok, too. First level supervisors are often pretty average people. The kid will make a decent living, though maybe not what kid grew up with, and s/he will likely find happiness and contentment. It often seems that average people have an easier time being happy, so that’s something to feel good about. [/quote]
