[quote=Anonymous]at 13 your child is old enough to talk to about the behaviors (his and others) you see that you do not like or accept in your household. if you pull him out for more nebulous reasons, what has he learned, about himself and others, and wont he be confused? he is too old to be lied to IMO. work with him think critically about what he is doing, and why, and how does that make him feel? have him think about how he feels when he plays rec and other sports vs being on this team. his feelings are already being hurt by the team, which is making him act the way he is - don't gloss over that. this a perfect opportunity for you to help him learn to value himself. then, pull him or tell him you are uncomfortable with this team and give him other options. but make him part of the conversation.[/quote]
