Op this is great advice. He was a camp counselor one summer and that definitely helped. He has seemed to regress unfortunately (lots of hours at the library at college) so I’ve got to push him to get back out there.
Or don't push him and let him struggle until he decides to change and push himself. That's how people grow. Mommy can't do everything for him.
