[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know Op. It isn’t the C, it’s the lack of motivation and work ethic. I think take away devices until he checks in with you daily showing what is due, when, and confirming submission. But you sometimes just have to love the child you have. You cannot force him to do well is he just doesn’t care and doesn’t want to[/quote] You can love him But have consequences for his lack of effort and failures. Make sure he knows he needs to be working fulltime or at school or apprenticeship or remedial HS at a community college or the military once HS is over. You are there for emergencies but he needs to pick his path and live to his potential. If historical is worker track at Best Buy then he should aim for that and go get a bunch of roommates in a house where you rent a room. [/quote]
