[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he doing it because he thinks colleges will like it or because he actually wants to do it? What colleges is he aiming for or considering? I wouldn't do a very challenging course load just for colleges, because it might not work out despite the rigor. However, if this desire for challenge comes from a good deal of intrinsic motivation, I would feel better about letting him go for it. Rigor for the sake of learning will benefit him regardless of where he ends up.[/quote]

SO we should do only what we actually want to do...lets see..I dont want to clean the poop when my dog takes a crap on his walk,hopefully it wont be in your frontyard [/quote]

If he wants to have the dog...clean the poop.  So take the Lit class as the responsible course of action.   If he is not interested in the all the time and energy required to be responsible foe a dog....no dog.  Bail on the lit class.  this decision depends on the student and their interests and goals.[/quote]
