Support and love him for what he is, not what you want him to be. If you don't, he will indeed leave and never come back when he's on his own.

My old college friend was a whiz with cars and anything mechanical. His son was very bright but not interested in anything mechanical. College friend kept trying to get his son to like what college friend liked, messing with cars, he just could not understand why his son didn't like to have fun working on cars.

Fast forward 20 years and now his son has a high education and has a good solid job, but he won't have anything to do with his dad. Son didn't even invite his dad to his wedding. Why? Because his dad never supported his true interests.

I don't know what to say about the lack of motivation because I don't know your son or the environment around him. I have a hunch the reason for the lack of motivation is he's given up because he can't please you. Jim
