Hi Vivian, Jan, Bill and Tim. Just wanted to say hi but I'm not staying long. It has been a bad day. Brian got a rejection letter from the college he wants to go to and won't talk to me
give him his space, I know as a mom you want to fix things but guys need space at times
Thanks Tim. I know. He went slamming out of here. I know he needs his space but I am just afraid that he is going to just let the next 3 months of school go downhill and not graduate. My son Jimmy said he will talk to him so I will let him handle it. It's just really hard. His father is no help when it comes to education

It's tough to face rejection at that age, but he'll get over it.
Like Tim said just be there when he decides to talk.

Evening all!
Tim, better to be pissed off than pissed on....
Jayne, hard lesson to learn, rejection....just be there when he is ready to talk...he's probably really embarrassed too and trying to save face...easier to act mad when you're a guy than to appear crushed....least that's how my 4 boys and hubby acted. JMO

I will and having lived in a house of men I know to just leave them alone.

That sucks for both of you....
All the advice the others gave you is great....but still the problem remains for now...
What are the other college options for his desired major? Are any of them do-able?
Good luck, Mom...

Hi Mary. Oh that is so true! And I know he will listen to Jimmy more than me about this stuff. Jimmy was sweet today. He said "Mom you got enough to worry about. I will talk to Brian and we will work out another plan. Don't even think about it" I love that my son is so grown up now!!
