[QUOTE="Sunlight, post: 40185, member: 97"] just want to say I am listening and I sympathize. I wanted want son to have the diploma. no matter what. ya know what? that is not the end all. after that you may have to prod push and cajole him into getting a job, a life, a spouse, etc etc. let the chips fall where they may. make sure he knows the class will go on without him. tell him you will get him a tutor and if he still will not help himself, let him fail. yes it will take one more year of his life. then again, some of us have sons long out of high school and they still are not fitting the mold of life. try not to stress so much. tell your son your life will be the same whether he makes it to graduation or not, however his will be much more difficult.
