[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone do this? My son is quite absent-minded and needs reminders in high school. Not sure that anything will magically change in August. He got a scholarship that will require a good GPA to keep. Without the scholarship, we can not afford the tuition. Suggestions appreciated.[/quote] 100% and I make no excuses for it. In a time of tight college applications where one mistake can torpedo chances at a good college, I absolutely monitor and remind. Luckily, I need to do very little of that and DC does her own work. I offer tutors and regularly check in as to deadlines, what's coming up, and what she needs. No I will not be with her at college. But she will be 4 years older by then and will have (hopefully) learned good organization and study habits. I'm helping to set her up to be independent by that time. We are not doing this for a scholarship, alone, but if that helps, all the better. [/quote]
