[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was your kid at 14! Luckily, my parents were there for me when i needed a shoulder to cry on, and didn't say much about quitting (in fact they encouraged trying). At 17, I tried cross country and track and field and made varsity in my high school. I eventually lost interest in sports in general but that's a different story. What I would do is I would find some books and articles about late bloomers and give them to your kid. I was just listening to a story on NPR about Steph Curry and how it wasn't clear whether he would be a good athlete even when he was entering college. [/quote] yeah steph was looked down on by tons of evaluators. too slow, too low release point, too weak, etc. his biggest 'offer' was virginia tech who told steph he could try out as a walk-on.
