When you have an articulate self-directed student such as yourself it is the only appropriate response from a lecturer. I have however sometimes found that younger, less focused students don't keep to the goals you set with them (and I do mean in discussion WITH them, sorry underlining not available). I found the idea of perhaps asking them to write down their reasons for continuing/studying in this course a good one, as per your comments above.
