The biggest issue I deal with are two similar groups of students:
1. Students whose parents are forcing them to be in school.
2. Students who are only in school because they get benefits or government grants while attending. They don't really plan on going into the profession.

So in an earlier post I mentioned that I am all four management styles. I start out as a Controller and then eventually Apathete to the students above and I'm Buddy and Guide to everyone else.

What are some suggestions for ways to stop being so controlling or apathetic? It seems so hard to draw in students who sometimes verbally say "I don't really want to be here, I'm just here to get my money" or "I'm only here because my parents will kick me out otherwise".
