[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So for those who had to push their kids, what do you think will happen when they get to college and have to be completely self-motivated?[/quote] Great question-and a concern that's crossed my mind. The answer? He'll do like I (and many kids) did and GROW THE HELL UP!!! Some kids enter college at a 100 in terms of drive. Others, like me, had to grow into being a student and halfway motivated person. What keeps me from worrying about him too much is that I can remember being just as lazy as him, but today I'm the super-organized, Type A shrew who's always on his case about slacking. And truthfully, he's MUCH better off and further along than I was at his age. So I think he'll be fine. [/quote]
