[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] You know you can always take them back to base. My kid never had to work hard to get A's so he never really developed good study habits and was not a very hard worker but he learned how to work hard at TJ.[/quote] Good poiint. One thing I believe is if he has a few friends going to TJ, and he also wants to go (if accepted), he probably won't do too bad there. Because he must has some idea how he is compared with others and he certainly don't want to be looked down by his friends. [/quote] Not having a work ethic is totally different than being gifted. My child is incredibly gifted but before TJ never struggled at anything. The lack of work ethic = drowning at TJ. Hence my advice. My kid is doing "fine" at TJ so won't be returning to base and absolutely refuses to do so anyway. That said, it would be easier for me as a parent if he weren't at TJ. [/quote]
