[quote=Anonymous]Is it maturity? I know a few people, including DH, who didn’t mature until their 20s and see the value in education. They failed high school classes and started and stopped community college a few times. DH said he needed to grow up and realize he needed a degree to get a decent job. He just hated school and nothing anyone said would have made a difference back then. Same for another family member. Paying rent living on their own with low paying work did it for them. This isn’t helpful for you now with your son but at least know some turn out to be very successful. [/quote]
