[quote=Anonymous]Op here. Yes, he thinks screentime is relaxing because he just sits there. I am not obsessed with sports, but he needs to do some exercises for physical activity for healthy and social reason. Sign up sports without tryouts at ES age is the easiest and the cheapest way to achieve my goals. As PP say, he may give up sports in MS because he is not good enough or more self conscious. If it happens, I hope that he has other things to be replaced with. What do MS do for physical activity?

For academic, there is a group of people has asked me if DC wants to join them to practice and train for math competition route. I think they want him to enroll into something like AMC8 because they say his math level is good. It is a group of MS/HS kids that love academic and they do many competitions like debate/math/stem and take many AP classes. DC loves math but I am not sure he has enough passions to do math competition. 
I want him to have happy childhood, so I still hesitate to push for academic. I feel like push for academic is equivalent to unhappy childhood from my experience.  [/quote]
