College Choices for Average Student?

<p>kharts…even though you are very disappointed in him, your son’s SAT shows that he has limited natural gifts. Those abilities may be capped by learning disabilities–it’s hard to know. I seriously doubt that all of his problems stem from WOW. More likely, he is using WOW to avoid the reality of his inabilities. </p>

<p>As frustrated as you are, try to fast forward a decade or two and imagine what it is like to have an un-educated, under-functioning son–who may add a child or two to his responsiblities–and your worry. You don’t know what worry is until you’ve worried about the well-being of your grandchildren.</p>

<p>You already know that you don’t have to worry about your other two–what a blessing. Your youngest son is the one who needs the most help–and possibly the most money. If you don’t find a college which will help him get up onto the rails of education and decent income, you may find that his troubles and your worry expand exponentially. </p>

<p>Absolutely, the best solution is for him to get additional education and adequate career training–money be damned. Personally, to find the best school and the best major for him, I would hire an educational consultant with extensive experience in boys with limited abilities. You can find a reasonably priced ($2500) one through the IECA <a href=“http://www.educationalconsulting.org%5B/url%5D”>www.educationalconsulting.org</a></p>
