Middle Boy is CONVINCED if he doesn't decide on a career TONIGHT that he is doomed for failure in life.

We are selecting classes for him to enroll in at his high school next year where he will be a sophomore.

He is FROZEN in fear with the decision about classes.

Part of the issue is the way they have the class options broken out.  You choose one math, one English, one science, and would social science.  After that the classes are in categories like culinary arts, military science, psychology and therapy, education...you get the picture.

He has it in his mind that until he decides on his future career path we cannot choose his electives.

Both Boarder and I have tried to tell him tonight that he doesn't have to choose.  In fact high school is a time to try everything and try to figure it out.  It kind of helps that Boarder is on his third college major and finally decided.

Praying we can convince him to fill out the paperwork so we can meet the deadline.
