Brief Answer:
I think definitely yes

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcare-magic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

Poor academic performance or decreased interest in studies is one of the common manifestation of stress among teen agers and I do not think this should be ignored. If we are not able to manage him at this age it will be difficult for future exams.

In my opinion it is much delayed but it is never too late to do needful.

I hope this helps you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.
