ADHD and dual credit early college? |
My son is ADHD and 16 and making Cs in a private school he doesn't like. An area charter school has open enrollment to graduate with an Associates degree and diploma. It's 5 core classes and requires a foriegn language. These are college classes with the average age of 29. His dr. said he would lean towards not saying No but my husband and I are like "we need to take our heads out of the sand, this is for bright, high achieving kids who want to be in college at 16"... My son doesn't particularly like the idea of working so hard but is wanting so badly to make a change. I think it should be his decision. If he wants to - then he should go for it. If he isn't sure - then allow his actions to make the decision for him and show you how motivated he is. |
