[quote=Anonymous]I am glad he wants to continue on the college path. Tell him you think that is the right decision. BUT, set some expectations (regarding juggling the business). For example, you could say that college is expensive, and his performance this year has shaken you a bit. You are happy he wants to prioritize college, but a little worried because he almost jeopardized that with his GPA slide. You could tell him that if his GPA falls below a B in college, he is on probation (with regard to you continuing to support him). If he does the same the next semester, you would ask him to take a year off to assess his priorities. I think you need to give him a chance to prove he is ready. But keep him on a short lease, given your concerns. Good luck.[/quote]
