[quote=Anonymous]He's probably fine! Many people, but I think especially boys have difficulty narrowing down what they really like and where their talents really exist until they are well into their 20s. For me grades k-12 were fairly awful. I had to take classes I didn't particularly enjoy, with kids and teachers I didn't particularly like; surely those feeling were mutual. I had little control of my life and I was constantly being judged by other people. Granted I was no bargain - but they weren't particularly delightful either. Eventually, I went in the Navy, saw the world, developed some skills and realized I wasn't very dumb after all : ) Give him time before really assessing his potential. Think about the Navy. He'll visit a lot of cool places which will give him a more worldly perspective than the Army and Air Force. Of course that just my personal bias, but it's what worked for me. [/quote]
