[quote=Anonymous]Agree with don’t worry about the future. Just get him through high school. His brain will mature, but later than other kids. I would take him now to visit a college, so he can see what it’s about. Then have him visit a trade school, talk to someone about Job Corps or Americorp. There are lots of non-college options for young people. I’d take him to a vocational counselor to let him see what’s out there. But really, just focus on the day to day successes, enjoy him for who he is right now. I’d also sign him up for something like an Outward Bound course. They are terrific for helping teens get a sense of purpose and improving self-esteem.[/quote]
