advice on daughter and boyfriend
| Wed, 12-28-2005 - 7:56pm |
My seventeen year old daughter is a senior in high school dating a 19 year old college freshman. This guy is a very nice young man. The problem is he is unmotivated and lazy.
One example my daughter had to carry two heavy boxes across the school gym and he just sat and watched and would not offet to help. He is also addicted to playstation. He misses classes to stay home and play and is condtantly late for work because of playing. He is also late for every time they are supposed to do something together. He is currently on academic probation because is is always playing and not studying. My daughter is an "a" student. Very talented and motivated to acheive. They have discussed a future together but I am concerned about his non motivational ways. My daughter is convinved that she can change him. He says he has adhd and is taking medicine for this. That is another thing I am concerned about. Any advice I can give my daughter or do I just keep my mouth shut and say nothing. I ma new to this so any advice I would appreciate. Thanks
