Contact Admin. My son is nearly He is bright but lazy. All he does is mess around on his computer and chat to online friends. He did well in his GCSEs, despite doing zero work, and started a diploma but dropped out because of depression.
He had some time off, restarted the course and dropped out again. He is polite and will help if I ask, but he has no motivation to do anything. If I try to talk to him about it, he digs his heels in and does less. I was single until five years ago, but that relationship has just ended. At one stage my son was very depressed and talked about feeling hopeless. He seems fine now, but I worry that pushing him will cause him to spiral again. He lacks self-confidence and seems happy to exist in the microcosm of his bedroom.
I know he needs to take responsibility for his life, but how hard should I work to make that happen? His two older sisters are not like him at all ; both are independent and getting on with their lives.
Should I kick him out and give him some tough love, or let him grow up a bit? I think you are torn between what you want to do and what you feel others are saying you should do. You should ignore what your father is saying: You know your son: I asked a family psychotherapist , Jess Morris , for her opinion. She urged you to push him to get a proper assessment, to see if he is suffering from depression, and to get the appropriate treatment.
