[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A friend of mine whose been through it gave me the advice that for the first semester you take a hands off approach given the level of transition. So I’d have a conversation to gain a sense of what happened - partied hard and forgot to go I class ? Became involved romantically and lost focus ? I would want to understand the root cause and then explain they have Spring term to start regaining their focus. Another 2.0 semester due to a loss of focus of effort and then we’d talk about the likelihood that they lacked the maturity to go away to school. But then again I forgot to go to school one semester - didn’t withdraw and pulled a 0.00 GPA. It happens. But it was something within me that didn’t want to fail that made me get back on track. Love your kid but it’s ok if it’s a bit of a tough love.[/quote] Lol, no way l would folloe advice of a person who forgot to go to school.[/quote]
