I have a 16 year old son!

[jakesq]

I have a 16 yearold son who is refusing to go to school and he wants to dropout and is staying home. I would like to know if I could kick him out of my house or can I sent him to military school even though he is not an American Citizen and he wants to leave the US. Please help me.
Thank you

Nice try, but . . . .

I'm not at all in doubt that you ARE the 16 year old son of whom you speak. We older people who stayed in school beyond the tender age of 16 are pretty hard to fool.

Re-read my response to your earlier post again. That'll save my looking it up and reposting it, and it's still valid advice.

In a few years, you'll discover that your parents have become a lot smarter than you now think. Good luck, kid!

My response:

Grandma B - - yeah, these kids think we're either crazy, stupid, or completely blotto.
