[quote=Anonymous]I have a child like yours who is very unathletic. My son has had to work twice as hard as others to achieve less in physical activities. While this coach was brusque and unfriendly, and I, too, would have been a little taken aback, I don't see why he should be obligated to be encouraging. At some point students with special needs have to compete on an even footing with those who are more able than they. If they can continue to strive and show what hard workers they are, and what mental strength they have, they will earn the respect they deserve. [/quote]
