[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes failure is the only way to learn. I know it's hard to see our kids fail or struggle, but it's worse to see them never launch or learn at all. I think you need to manage her less. Absent a neurological deficit, pull back, with lots of communication and care. For reference, mine is the same age, and this summer she's taking a required class online, and working full time at a job with variable hours. She also has another gig once a week or so. I have not had to remind her, wake her, prep her clothes, etc. Not once. This is a big change from last summer! People develop at different paces. So maybe yours just isn't there yet; but she's less likely to get there if you're doing it for her. [/quote]
