17 Year olds tend to do that.

Revoke privileges when results are fading. It will be a war so...strength and good luck to you and your loved ones.

I am 17, and a girl! So i guess I have something in common with your daughter. I have never been an avid student so I don't really have that problem, but consider this. Now at 17 a lot is going, you are treated more like an adult and I get a lot more priviledges and respect. I go out more cause there is so much to explore. I'd say give her her freedom, but impose a balance. Say you don't need to sneak around you ca do things ( within reason) but you have study and keep up your half. If your grades drop your privledges drop. This way you start with trust and as she becomes more responsable she'll get more respect and will strive to do better to get more.

Some changes r looking in these age peoples.Don't worry and don't put any presser on her. Talk with her as a friend and try to know what she is thinking.At this time Parents play an important role for there childrens.Don't abuse them.U share ur time with her and tell her how studies r important in these days as a friend. If there isn't any responce from her .take council for her.

No body will leave interest in their studies.They know that is their future.Analyse her character in the past and your self also.Are you insisting her continuously for studies.Are you talking with her more about studies.Is there any in home always talking about education and careers.These are some factors make the students annoyed and divert their attention from studies.Absorb her interest and show value towards it The rest follows.

Give her some space, She will regain interest in her own time. There is no hurry she is young and will find her way back. Just trust you have done your best to raise her to be productive and good person. Give her time to make her own mistakes and choices. Don't worry all will be fine.

It could be one of three things. Either she is depressed, new boyfriend, or has a case of senioritis. Senioritis happens either in the last semester or marking period of a senior in high school. Sometimes they think they can coast through the last semester due to college acceptance is in but can cause problems if severe enough. I recommend talking to her to see what is happening.

17 year olds tend to be a little dramatic at times..........BUT....you need to find out if her disinterest goes deeper than just what you see on the surface..........The way the world is today you just never know, what is really going on.
Good Luck! sounds as though you could use some

Instead of discussing such answers over the internet why don't you have a one to one discussion with your daughter and understand what her problem is. I think only you can solve this problem and not the internet

IT's srping, and a 17 year old girl isn't concentrating on her studies?? wow, big surprise there.

Tell her to bring him home so you can meet him, and go from there.

I did the same thing at a big younger page. A big reason for that was my parents were pushing me too hard.
