Wow he should be ashamed of himself he is a grown man. I think u should tell him to start thinking like a mature man. Without a college degree he won't get too far. By doing wat he is doing he is just going to give up.
I wish u guys luck!

Yes, that should actually be your parents telling him. Does he pay for school or does someone else? From what it sounds like someone else does because if it were him im sure it would hurt him to keep on spending money and failing...its good to look at all your possiblities but sometimes reality has to kick in. He is behaving like a teenager and he is not one...you should tell him, but try to bring it up more as a casual conversation, so he wont feel you are lecturing him and become defensive.

I think it's definately time for you brother to get his act together. If you are worried about him wasting his life away bring it up in a way which will not make him feel attacked or belittled or try dropping hints when you're around him (such as: how is school going? when do you think you'll graduate?). However, my bet is on that he won't listen to you unless you are helping him finacially. If it's your parents footing the bill you might want to talk with them. But, if no one is going to change anything you'll just have to keep out of it.

yeah, but you have to do it step by step. Bring it up lightly. Explain his situation and mirror it back. He might not be able to see it clearly and also find what s wrong with him 'cause he might be facing some problems here. So, give him a pep talk about that and try to stand by his side and show it thru your words as that will show you to him as a caring bro.
good luck
keep me updated

That depends. Are you footing the bill? If hes paying for himself it is his business. If someone else other than you is paying then it is up to them when to decide enough is enough.
If your concern is he is wasting his life and its not the money then tell him. I doubt he will listen though since hes having so much fun. Good luck.

Absolutely tell him. The people that really care about you in life aren't afraid of telling you the truth. You don't have to be mean about it but be honest.

Ask him has he ever considered working on a farm? (He'd make the perfect "Son-in-Law"....the dude who was in college and still had not graduated.) Tell him you feel he would succeed at feeding pigs on roller skates and "carve" his name into the crops with a plow. He can even rename himself...Crotch...Crap...
