Default Update my reluctant HS student

First... Thanks to all who responded. Apparently his apathetic attitude is quite common.

Steps we have taken
1. Took away electronics - Wii, Xbox, Ipad, Phone
2. No ski trip.

Results
Improvement has been immediate grades are up and Sunday night studying Spanish a day early...Can that be my son?

has asked for xbox back... We will see and when we do on a very limited basis

Ability is there..Motivation sadly not so much.
