Is all the work in high school worth it?

I think you hit the nail on the head. When he was younger (even up until last year as a freshman) school came to him so easy that I figured pushing him a little bit was not a bad thing. Now that he is really in the mix of things, I guess I am just not used to actually seeing MY kid having to work hard. I think your post is insightful of how people change over time. It’s funny because at the same time I am seeing the changes in my son’s study habits and worrying about it, I am telling his fellow classmates how hard they have to work. I don’t know, maybe I am just caught up in the moment or maybe I am nuts lol. Thanks for your post

Btw, he says he loves doing all the work, he finds it challenging.
