I did the same and I feel I'm a better person for it. My son however has conditioning every day after school, and practice after that, then games on the weekends. I'm not sure how he'd find time to work without grades or sports or both suffering. I'd rather fork it over and let him enjoy his senior year. Hopefully he learns the right lesson and I didn't just ruin his life.
