[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC will be 17. For years it has been a struggle to get her to study. Now in HS has a C+ average and poor test scores. Yet, she is very articulate and was an early word learner. It just kills me because I come from a family that puts tremendous significance on academics. Dreamed of someday taking her to visit colleges and now the future looks like community college if even that. I fear that DC is going to spend a life in low paying service jobs. Is t hopeless? Do kids often start findfing themselves in their 20s?[/quote] OP - was your child happy at that high school? If not maybe that was issue with her grades? FWIW, the HS I went to was a terrible fit for me, and my marks reflected it. When I went off to college I went from being a B or C student to making straight As. Mostly it was due to being in a better environment.[/quote]
