[quote=NoYou]First, welcome to the majority of American parents. By age 13, 75% of kids have quit travel sports. As for your specific situation, I would encourage you a) to talk to the coach and b) consider a break. If you get a coach that is like "fine, leave, we'll replace you easily enough" than leave--this isn't a coach who is really interested in your development. Chances are if you have a good coach they'll work with you on a plan to get your kid through this and give you some time to make the right choice, which leads to the second part. Consider taking a 3-4 week break and let your kid go without soccer and see if they are still certain they want to leave after. Keep them fit of course doing other sports or even a kick about or something like that, but after 3 weeks re-engage with them about their long term plans for soccer. [/quote]
