He is leaving school

Then what?
Seriously, I may be able to advise a bit on this one!!
Precisely. We'd all love to know.

He's also swimming in a sea swamp of total unmitigated apathy, and total negativity, with absolutely no idea whatsoever what he'd like to do, only I think I may know differently....car sales.

Mrs Growler suggested getting a good trade behind him, you know, a life skill, but he simply says NO.
He has my complete sympathy and understanding though. It isn't easy trying to make the right decision.
I give up....for now, until the 'seconds out, round 2' bell rings.
