Hey guys, my best friend Tim... i've known him for a long time nearly since i was born.

But now im worried about him, because like he never thinks about his future, like i ask him what he wont to be when he grows up but he just says paint car's.

But, he always wags/skips school his a bit dumb :rolleyes: because he never listens in class he always copy's off me or my other friend Aaron.

Like when i try to talk serious with him, he always plays around like he never takes any thing seriously, even my mum and dad are worried about him.

I don't know what to do, because he can't take anything serious when i try to talk seriously he just acts like a jack ass :dry:.

He could be looking at this right now since his a member on this site.

So guys i dont know what to do...like i don't wont him to end out like a bum on a street or a junkie or some thing.
 
You never know, HR.
Your friend may be a loser, or a dufus, or a nerfball, or whatever you wanna call him. But he might not turn out so bad after all. As long as the kid's not doing drugs or hanging with the wrong crowds, I say let him be just a little bit slower than the rest of his and have his fun. lol.
 
He sounds a lot like my dad. lol.
Not that my dad would do any of that now, but...as I was told, he was a jackass just like that when he was a teenager. XD

Would he really beat someone up? XD
 
You should just let him be. It's his decision at the end of the day, and you should let him make it. You can't decide for him.
How old are you guys anyway?
 
If you say he's 15 years old, then this conversation doesn't really make sense. lol.
 
I can't see what you could hope to do for him. If you've tried talking to him about prosperities, and he brushes the conversation off, there's nothing that can be done about it. Besides, he's young... there's plenty of time for him to make up for lost education, and he can always just invest his time in the field he enjoys most. I highly doubt he'll be interested in just painting cars all his life, so that may evolve into something like mechanics later down the line.

I wouldn't regard this as a serious issue in your time of life. Let him fuck about and do what he wants. Youth is only there for a short time.
 
Your friend at the moment is young and doesnt really need to take his life seriously yet. If he was 20 and acted like that, then maybe there would be a cause for concern.
 
just cause someone doesnt pay attention in school doesnt meen theyl end up a drunk or a junkie, i never stuck in at school i was hardly ever there, i never thought about my future, i didnt have a clue what i wanted in life, but ive ended up doing really well. Your mate can go to college, get an apprentiship do whatever he wants, uv gotta remember let him do what he wants its his life,im sure hes glad u care tho
 
Well, to be honest, as a kid I came across as having the same attitude. I think right now he really is just interested in painting cars for a living. Fair enough. That can actually be rather lucrative if you're good at it.

As he progresses, his talents may develop or he may discover something new. However, if you keep pushing him, he's just going to become more determined to follow his original decision, trust me.

So since he's going to do what he wants either way you may as well not fight him over it. If he's anything like I was, he'll be able to buckle down and get serious when he needs to. He's probably a master of the last-second deadline rush.
 
I totally agree with Nephany on this topic. I too have a great friend, who hasn't finished dropped out of High School our senior year, he hasn't got his GED yet, and he is just not that intelligent. He is smart, don't get me wrong, there is a difference between smart and intelligent.

But it's like Nephany said, let it play out. Nobody can decide for you what you wanna do with your life, that is the most important decision you can make in your life. He'll wake up and smell the coffee someday.
 
My opinion is always: "Who cares as long as I'm happy?"

And since I could be happy living by myself in a shack in the woods, it's really not all that surprising that I'm fairly unconcerned about my future even now.
 
its probably just a phase... just like emo's when they might eventually see how bad they look in tight pants... your mate will look back and realise what he's been doing was bad. i suggest you continue to be an influence on him for as long as possible
