write or wrong- im 16 i dont think i can really give advice to a parent but ill try. At 16 ur really confused. U dont know what u want. U enjoy watching all the movies and listening to the music but u know its wrong and somewhere in side u want to stop but dont know how. U go to the movies because the learning doesnt really interest u. U find it boring, too hard to learn and then it comes to why do i need to do this anyway? And u tell urself forget about it and u stop learning totally. U should let him watch a little (try and limit it) but try to stop it comepletely otherwise hell go haywire but make deals with him. Ask him what HE WANTS to learn and learn that with him for as long as he wants. Guys dont want people telling them what to do they want to make the decisons. Let him make the decisions but u give him the ideas and let him pick. Really u should ask someone who has experience dealing with this kind of thing.
