Tell him you'll buy him a Colt gold cup 1911 if he graduates with a 3.0 or higher... that should get his attention.

He should be able to leave at christmas time - at the end of the term then\n\nhowever, it is worth noting that although school is really boring and rubbish there is a reason that it is there.  i would advise him to stay on and finish the year - he will need to do half of it anyway so he might as well get something useful out of it.\n\nleaving school is a big decision and one that should be thought through carefully. he should be able to discuss his options with his parents, teachers, college advisors and career advisors - i wish you all the best

I do not understand the question, please elaborate.\n\nETA: Do you mean he cuts classes? Like skips them? I don't know if you can help him unless you do his homework for him. :(

Have to police or the courts order him to leave.  He need to learn to stand on his own two feet.  He might just need a wake up call.  Give him a bus pass for him to get around.  There should be a way for him to get his own grants and loans.  Tell him to either help around the house, get a job and get out.  I lnow this is a very hard thing to do as a parent but it is time for him to find his wings.  There are a lot of adults who get loans to goto school.  Tell him it is time to wake up and smell the coffee.

By bringing him home and sending him to a local school.\nIt should be quite obvious by his behavior that he does not want to be there, and frankly, neither would I, if I were in his place.

Just tell him that you would have to reduce his time on the computer if he doesn't get a specified level of grades... Take away each of his luxury item if he doesn't achieve the Grades...This is slow and not too hard on the Kid and it ensures performance too.

Put him on probation. No make-out session until those grades come up, mister!

this is probably something you dont want to hear but maybe you need to get him tested.  sounds like he may need medicine help to keep him focused so that he can concentrate better in school. good luck...

Don't say anything to him and tell the teacher that he is really distracting you from your work in class and ask to be moved.

He is irresponsible to skip classes first of all.\n\nIf your not interested that stop pandering to his needs to get you. If he gets you he will lose interest shortly there after.\n\nStay with your focus.

I am a school kid and i know exactly how your son feels, i have no motivation towards my work whatsoever. The only way i can focus on my work is to have everything taken from me. It's not that i doon't want to learn it's just i can't be bothered. So what i would do is ask him if he is actually bothered about his future. If he says he is then tell him that you will take everyhting that he thinks might distract him because then you will be on "his side" but if he says that he isn't bothered about his future then take everyhting away from him anyway so then he will do his work from pure boredom. Dopn't forget to stick to what you say otherwise he won't pay any attention to what you say in the future. I'd also use the technique of restricting the days which he can go out with his friends on, maybe to days at the weekend as usually during the week nobody wants to go out anyway so restricting to weekend wont really affect him but he will think it will and then he will want to work so he can have the rest of the week off.

As long as he gets free room and board from you, he has no motivation to get a job.  You must take a hard-line stance against this.  Tell him he has 30 days to shape up and get a full time job, or throw him out.  Get your friends and loved ones to help you.
