He hates college. He says sitting in a classroom bores him, which I knew it would. He wants to be out in the world and he wants to earn money.
He's not highly academic and had to work hard to get his 6 GCSE's.
He's looked into apprenticeships but they are few and far between now.
He talked about the military a while ago and last week finally applied. Reading online the process is quite arduous and tough. He's still keen - but I doubt he knows the full reality of what he's letting himself in for.
It would be great for him as he's losing his way a bit with mates that lead him astray and no real focus.
Anyone else gone or going through this?
