[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son has an extremely high iq, but has no drive, like none. What are my options? How do I get him to care? He hates the minutiae of school, but that's part of life. He admits that he wants to skate through life. What am I supposed to do?![/quote] That's a common issue. Let him see a therapist, enjoy his extracurriculars, build social circle and just do good enough in school to graduate. There are many paths to success, just one life to live. If he is smart, he'll get to better schools and career through community college.[/quote] Therapy for what? Having lazy parents? [/quote] What do you suggest? Ruining his mental health and your relationship with him pushing him to reach his "potential"? [/quote]
