[quote=Anonymous]I had no real interests as a teen - I watched a lot of TV and read. No sports or leadership. I went to a state school and graduated with a ridiculous major, dropped out of law school, got a government job that I'm quite good at. I'm perfectly content and able to hold up my half of our two-income household (which is composed entirely of non-competitive people). I don't know how "plays video games and watches sports" translates to - "won't graduate from college or hold down a job." My lazy ADHD teen is currently in college and is doing fine. No, he's not as intense and driven as many young people who grew up in this area, but that doesn't make him a pile of human garbage. OP, it sounds like you just can't stand the fact that your DS doesn't have your exact personality and attributes. He probably doesn't bother training for his sport because anything less than being the best on the team would probably be disappointing to you. [/quote]
