Ds is bright, at a good school, but after a term of A levels he is miserable and wants to leave... How do we help him?
I know he has to stay in education or training (he is just 16), and I gather he could look for an apprenticeship? But he has no idea what he wants to do, he isn't into practical things or I would encourage him into a skill like plumbing, he just needs some time to grow up and figure out where he wants to get to! I'd quite like him to leave and get a job, and then maybe go back in a year or two, but is that feasible?
I'd be so grateful for any advice!
