Thanks for all the input so far, some interesting ideas.
To be fair to him I'm probably comparing his focus and motivation to myself at his age; I was laser focused and knew exactly what my path was but I'm not normal.
He lost so much of his early schooling to is Autism/ADD and he's done an incredible job of catching up, I rarely have to monitor him to keep up with his school work now, he's getting great grades, and who doesn't have time management challenges at that age.
There's some merit to the idea of half school half work for a year or something like that, especially for him.
Anyway again thanks for the great input, I will maybe sit down and read the thread with him to see what he thinks too.
