boyfriend
my boyfriend just turned 17 [junior.. diff. school], and still doesnt have his license. he was supposed to get it 2nd semester last yr but he missed 12 days of school [the max. is 10 a semester] and they told him he'd have it wait another year and actually ATTEND school to get it. he was mad as hell and i felt bad for him [i started talkin to him in march of last yr so i never really knew he missed school]. so far this year, well this semester actually, hes already missed like 3-4 days, and its barely been over a month. now i see why he didnt get it. hes only had like 1 excused but the rest of the time he just "doesnt feel good" and doesnt get up. what can i say to him thatll encourage him to go to school so he can get his license this year, becuase i dont wanna hear all that whining all over again about him having to wait ANOTHER year to get it, but i dont wanna sound all motherly about it or anything yanno?

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Im 16 and some months and i cant pass my permit for crap. which means i wont be getting my lincense for awhile. its because i dont believe in myself not because i dont care but just because i dont think i can do it. your boyfriend needs some courage, maybe some words to push him to try and get it. but first he needs to realize how important it is to go to school or else he wont ever get the chance to get his license. i know what you mean by not trying to sound " mother like " but maybe thats what you need to sound like to motivate him. if you truely care about him you will say whatever it takes for him to realize. start a conversation about how much he means to you and you want the best for him but tell him the only way for that is for him to actually go to school and keep going. if he wants to see you two happy together then im sure he`ll listen. best of luck!

If he doesn't really care for his license and going to school, you can't make him care. He's just lazy and that's his own fault. Talk to him and try to convince him to get up and go to school. He needs to learn that being lazy won't do him any good. If he really wanted his license as bad as he claims he does, he'd get his ass up and go to school. He shouldn't just miss school for no reason. So, like I said. Just talk to him and try to convince him that in order for him to drive, he has to go. If he refuses to do so, there's really nothing else you can do. It's nothing you can fix.
