[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]8:00, you really are missing the mark here, I am not going to write it for him I want to help him out narrowing down a potential topic.  Furthermore, you know nothing about him and his strengths lie more in math, science and [b]entrepreneurship[/b].  
As for my comment about the food, following the logic of many of the PP how could you expect your kids to know how to feed themselves if you always do it for them.  Unless of course you are just trying to help them out in a way but you know they can really do it themselves.

Again, so glad you are all perfect parents.[/quote]

Spin it any way you want - his strengths lie elsewhere, it's just the same as making dinner for him (Really, OP?  Really?), whatever . . . the fact remains that you are not only actively involved in selecting report topics for a child who (presumably) will be in college in 9 months, but so involved that you decided to solicit anonymous opinions on the internet to help you suggest book topics to him.  (As an aside, please tell me ne's not attending a university with a Great Books curriculum . . . although the books there are pre-selected, so I suppose it's be OK.)    Moreover, your concern was apparently motivated by the potential stress it would cause YOU (not him, you) if he got a week out and decided he choose the wrong book.  It's apparent you're the problem here, not him.  [/quote]
