My 15 year old son is taking his GCSE's and I think I'm more worried than he is.

 

He keeps telling me to chill, as he knows what he needs to achieve to get into 6th form and, horror of horrors, we also discussed University and career options :ohdear:

 

When did he get so grown up :confused:

 

I had my first serious talk with my half brother a week ago. We didn't get to talk often because he was busy with his family and work and stuff like that (he's 36).

 

So basically we talked about everything that brothers would talk about, sexuality, society, politics, school, college, career etc.

 

He was surprised that I already chose a college to go to and my career path and that I'm so serious about relationships, all that with my 17 years :P I grew up because I was horribly worried and anxious about not heaving a good future, so I decided to step things up a bit. Maybe your son had a similar experience, but then again not everybody is as paranoid as I am :D

Hey, being determined about your future is a good thing IvOOO, it means you're taking life seriously. I've read a few biographies in my time and one defining characteristic of a lot of very successful people is bullheaded determination and a slight tendancy towards obsession. The best one I've read is Enzo Ferrari's biography. Enzo started out as a mechanic and eventually ended up leading ultimate sports car company. It all came down to his suibborness, unswerving determination be the best, arrogant pride, and a touch of OCD. It's a good read if you like cars, since he was a very a-typical sports legend. Abrasive, temperamental, and infamously blunt.

He still hasn't settled on a career choice, he is still looking at his options. He just realises that he needs to achieve certain grades to go to 6th form and then he needs to decide what he's going to do with regard to A'Levels. These will lead him into his chosen career and then depending upon those grades, get him into a good university of his choice. (Altho I would prefer him to stay near home so I can keep an eye on him lol.)

the air for him must be thin, with you around ... for men growing up it is important to get indipendant as well as selfconfidence ... best to be around but only offer advice if he asks for it .... oh and one more thing naomis..
