Hi Virender Sir, My son is in 12th std and loves computers and coding, he learns all by himself and tries to innovate. But he is not at all focused in studies and hates to study. He understands only marks can get him to good college, but does not have the mind to study. Should i take him to phycologist. What is your suggestion to make him study

Ans: How has been with studies,where is he lacking in understanding his subjects. Check what is making him procrastinate the task. To develop his interest get him extra support for his subjects he doesn't understand. Get him counselled if required.

Ans: Hi Shamshad

Sad to hear about your son that he is not interested in studies.

Here are some steps:
1) Open Communication: Have a calm conversation with him and listen actively.
2) Exploring the "Why" - Lack of Passion, Difficulty with Studies, or some other External Factors!

If available, talk to his College Advisor: College advisors can offer guidance on study skills, course selection, and career planning.
Consider a Semester Break: If your son feels overwhelmed, a semester break could give him time to recharge and refocus. However, ensure he uses this time productively.

By having open communication, understanding his reasons, and exploring options together, you can help your son navigate this challenge and find renewed interest in his studies.

Ans: Hello dear
Your son is in just 8th grade! It’s natural to worry about your child’s future, but at this stage, the focus should be on helping him explore his interests, build curiosity, and develop strong fundamentals, especially in math, science, and communication. Instead of deciding now between engineering, medicine, or other careers, encourage him to try different activities like coding, science clubs, creative writing, or robotics to discover what excites him. Talk regularly about different professions, expose him to role models, and support both academic and non-academic growth. As he moves to higher grades, his strengths and interests will become clearer, making it easier to guide him toward a well-suited career path. Just ensure that he stays consistent in his studies, attends school or tuitions regularly, and appears for all tests. Don't compare him with others. Always encourage him. Stay relaxed.

Good luck.
