Thanks everybody for the input and kind words. He is a good kid.

And as to "second chances". This WAS his second chance. He had a 2.0 after the first semester and I made it abundantly clear that he needed to really buckle down. I guess it just wasn't important enough for him. I understand that, I did the same thing at 16. That's why I begged him not to screw up his GPA because you can seldom recover it.

I think he will work for a while. I may hold off on the JobCorps a month and see if he gets any interviews or anything. It's just sad, we try to help our kids have a better path than we had. *sigh*

Keep the suggestions coming if you think of anything.

THANKS!!!!!!
