Is he a good student? I'm asking because Lord willing, he may get a look for his athletics and luck into a chance to go to college and make a good life for himself?

No. He never has been. Not even in elementary school when he was being taken special care of by a handful of teachers and coaches with high hopes. He will coast through high school with low grades because of his athletic abilities but will not be able to make it in college. The whole situation makes me so sad because at one point when he was spending most of his time with us he started coming around and studying etc. I'm not a quitter and hated to give up on him but he is to the point the he expects handouts and special treatment because of his athleticism and just lacks the work ethic to complete the package. SAD STUFF!
