Rabil didn’t like lacrosse and wanted to quit but his mom made him do it.

His mom made him finish the season he committed to at the beginning of the season, not lacrosse forever. Very different lesson finishing what you started and committed to vs making someone play a sport if they never started or started a season with a team.

This same post (should I force my 7 year old to play or will he be left behind) pops up every few months. It always receives a surprising number of serious responses. No one can be that ridiculously clueless.

Just look at the thread four or five down. My third grader hates lacrosse - should I make him play? Just stop.

Ok but why did you pull up an ancient thread to say this?
