[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well sometime between now and 3-4 years from now you'll have to allow him to learn for himself the consequences of poor decision-making. The worst you could do is protect him from all decision-making (by making the decisions yourself) and then drop him off at college. [/quote] This is so true. OP here. On the one hand I've heard that teenage brains are not yet wired to take consequences into account. And he WILL fail, I'm afraid, without constraints. On the other hand, he needs to start experiencing the consequences so he can develop that skill, even if it means his grades plummet and his college choices suck.[/quote] [/quote]
