[quote=Anonymous]First of all, I'm so sorry. It's tough to see your kid struggling. I get it. Every one of those things feels so momentous, too, when they're this age! Maybe he could try a new sport that his two buds don't play? Also, I will say, my kids have grown at different times in sports. So some years they weren't very good compared with their peers, and some years they were great. So I hope he doesn't give up! Have you read Fish in a Tree? It's about a girl with dyslexia. Very well written and compassionate - may help with his bad feelings about the dyslexia, at least. We listened to it as an audiobook as a family. Most of all, hugs to you. Because being a parent when your kids are getting knocked down is TOUGH. But [/quote]
