I don't get this.  War against whom?[/quote]

Wars against lack of motivation at exactly the wrong time. Wars against alcohol and rampant drug use at his dmv private. Wars against telegram that delivers drugs like Doordash to kids neighborhoods (yeah, we were horrified to learn this one). Wars against house parties gone amok. Wars against teen rebellion and teen anxiety. Wars against brain rot from the phone. Wars against the system (knowing how soon to get SAT prep, when to set high standards and when to pull back). Wars against the characters/friends that come into DS's life that could derail him.

The Wars have nothing to do with other parents. [/quote]

If he was doing this things in HS when you should have been there and had more control, he will certainly be doing these things or worse in college.

You won the “we got over this one hump” war, not the parenting war. You still need to keep working because I would be terrified to send this kid away to college on his own.[/quote]
