[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My older child is not intrinsically motivated at all. He is in 8th grade and has just started to show an inkling of caring about school at all. I have decided to pretty much completely back away this year. He gets to figure out sink or swim before it really counts. Of course, I will be there for him if asked (and I am keeping a watch from the sidelines at this point).[/quote] +1 We started backing off in MS when grades dont count towards college. We support them, but they started leading and caring more. They're old enough to understand its thier future, takes work for a certain life style.[/quote]
