MY son is 18 a senior in HS. He is doing some volunteer work with Habitat for Humanity next week.
Makes me think if your son likes hands on mechanically oreinted work than let him find a construction related job for a year off from college; and hopefully after a year of that, he'll like the field & also consider getting some college or vocational schooling to further his career in something he knows he likes.

As long as he doesn't decide to go to the military or law school you are OK...
