[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you are planning on nagging your kid to get applications done that he is clearly not motivated to do? Will you also be in his dorm room nagging him to finish that paper that's due in the morning? Will you be there reminding him not to blow his budget on booze?

:roll:

How about you begin to foster some sense of accountability and independence in your child (oh wait, the time to do that was 16 years ago) and let them figure their own shit out. Mommy and daddy won't be around to hold their hands forever.[/quote]YOU are a nag!  OP, the PP doesn't have a a full picture view who your child is.   Yes, s[he] is entitled to an opinion but it's full of self-righteous, overbearing opinion.  Don't kowtow to the insult.  Anonymity's how they get off their chest what they DIDN't do.  Now, watch this creep come back with full blown discussion how inadequate everyone else is while their lil darlin' is the toast of the Ivy schools.

PP runs a pattern.  Don't fall for it.  I GUARANTEE she or he will be back to blast away while preaching their baseless opinion about your child.  Parenting is tough work as we try and steer our kids.  Flame away, PP.  Your cheap words shouldn't impact anyone here because you don't pay one damn bill, provided not one piece of positive advice for OP's kid, didn't attend one teacher meeting, etc.  You are just someone with a big ass mouth with weak ass attempts to demoralize OP.

And I give less than a shit about your inevitable attempts to demean me.  I see your  cheap style and sense of self-righteousness all over this forum.  Don't let this self-overrated person's shoddy cheap shot get to you, OP.[/quote]

Ooh, nice comeback, PP.  I agree totally.  It is sooo easy to slam someone else anonymously and in hindsight.  No one needs that.

OP,  I pray he gets it together.  For what it's worth, I remember my niece being apathetic when applying for colleges.  She did get in and will be graduating this year, but she expressed regret about not putting forth more effort into where she applied.  She is really motivated now applying to grad schools.[/quote]
