[quote=Anonymous]OP you might be sabotaging your kid's ability to make full use of his natural talents. He maybe underachieving because of the parent child dynamic you have created. I've watched it happen several times. The parents demand so much from a kid he completely checks out and lacks motivation, because he either feels he will never live up to his parents' expectations, or he's over scheduled and over controlled to the point he just goes with the flow and loses all motivation. In any event, I think therapy could help a lot. Both to realign your expectations and maybe set up a healthier parenting dynamic that will encouraging your son to shine in whatever way he is meant to.[/quote]
