My son the consistent underachiever, how can I explain how he is ruining his life?

<p>Just echoing others. This kid is doing fine and is very far from “ruining his life.” Be proud of him. You obviously have no idea what others are dealing with.</p>

<p>I don’t know how a parent even knows GPA. Colleges don’t tell us. I don’t ask either. I figure if they are old enough to be in college, they are old enough to handle their grades on their own.</p>
