I'm taking a hands-off approach to my son's schooling. I don't want him to fail, but he needs to be independent.
Briefly

I want him to 'feel' the grade. I don't want to see him fail, but I have to give him the chance to learn a hard lesson.
Instead of obsessively checking his grades like I used to, I occasionally ask him how he's doing... I'm simply asking him why he's getting these grades.
He has to want to succeed for himself, not for me. I told my son he had to self-manage his schooling from now on.
Though I have been more hands-off, I haven't entirely thrown my hands up and left him to figure everything out on his own.
