No kiddos of my own, lots of nieces and nephews.
Hmm...wonder why he quits stuff. Is it the coolness thing? Is he insecure with his "cool" friends?
I like what you said about there not being scholarships for being cool!
I don't know what to say. On the one hand, kids change a lot from 14 to 15 to 16 to 17, etc., so it is still too early to panic. On the other hand, I can understand your uneasiness at seeing him float from thing to thing.
As for money for college, I really beleive it isn't the worst thing in the world for a kid to go to a local community college, especially for a kid who isn't all that mature and motivated yet. I think some kids start at community college and get a good basis, and it helps them through the time needed to mature, and then they have more options after a couple of years.
