(Taking classical guitar lessons and older than most students parents. 😆) And plenty of comedy and Looney Tune type DVDs to keep laughing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but those biology students aren’t away from home, practicing all day and living on a bus for half of that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between a 16 year old who has demonstrated the ability to handle college content and a 21 year old who is in college taking biology "cause I have to" is part of that gap though. I totally get that age isn't a guarantor of maturity, but that 16 year old is probably a few standard deviations ahead the maturity norm for 16 year olds than the 21 year old you have in mind for his cohort. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a LOT there to work with that could be done so good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
