[quote=Anonymous]If he can focus on making friends with other kids who are not great at sports then he will make friends and gain confidence. If if tries to make friends with kids who only value sports talent, he will set himself up for disappointment. Once he decides to pursue and enjoy academics he can shine within academic groups like robotics, journalists, math Olympiad etc…. For now since he does not like academics activities like Boy Scouts, Improv, martial arts, video game coding class etc…might be a good fit. In high school and middle school kids who are good at athletics do get lots of attention from peers, but there are plenty of other ways for kids to gain recognition and confidence within whatever their area of interest happens to be. It sounds like you need to encourage him to join some not sport based activities where he can shine. [/quote]
