DC currently resitting AS modules and taking one A level.
Will be staying on next year to sit 2 A levels . ( sciences )
He's a nice lad ,bit young for his age ,limited social life so no staying out late ,drinking etc.
But clueless about his future .
He's thinking HE ,but although able he just won't put the work in ... I found out last week how little he'd been doing .( he's able to maintain quite a facade,hours in bedroom ,no computer or phone ,books open in front of him ....checking reveals a few pages of notes after weeks of " revision " )
Am gutted by this ,but have to accept it's up to him .
Clearly he's not got motivation for academic study - how can I help him work out career choices ?
Any tips ? Any one else in same boat ?
Feeling really hopeless .
