So I have money on a card waiting for a company to tell me if they'll allow Miguel to attend an event because it doesn't say age requirements. He comes to me and tells me he doesn't want to go. He'd be useless and because of him they'll fail their project. WTH, the money's waiting. We sat here and went over all the knowledge he has that could be helpful. If he lets his anxiety/depression rule him he'll never do what he wants. This is a real concern because he tuns 18 in about a year and a half. If he wants to go to a university (and he says he does) he has about 11 months before he has to put in his applications. A little under two years before he goes of to work. However he feels worthless and stuck and I don't know how to help. Now I really am concerned if his team doesn't finish that he'll become suicidal. I feel we kinda ganged up on him and maybe he really doesn't want to go. This was suppose to build his self esteem, let him see what it feels like to work in a team for a common goal but how do you know if it's to much? He's still having trouble getting up in the morning? When do I know I'm pushing to much? I don't want to spend all this money to make my kid suicidal. Where do you draw the line between being pushy and being supportive?
