[quote=Anonymous]I have a very similar sentiment about my kid. I’ve curtailed the effort and I’ve come to terms with the fact that he won’t be a straight A student. I make him do hw, I reward him for semester As and take away privileges any time he has a running C or god forbid a D (he loooves going down down down and then pulling it up to a B-), I am trying to make him cut this cr*p. However I don’t enroll him into stuff that is expensive, only cheap or free and only if he asks. I am also not sending him to an expensive school for his supposed “passion”. I mostly order food when it’s convenient *for me* so that’s not a factor. He is pretty good about chores and helping around the house so I think there’s hope for him. He won’t be a brilliant professional but he’ll do fine I’m sure. [/quote]
