[quote=Anonymous]Your son sounds burned out. A kid who suddenly “looks lost,” avoids soccer, and fakes an injury to get out of practice isn’t a puzzle. He isn’t having fun anymore but it seems like he’s having a hard time telling you and DH. Also, if Dad’s “excitement” reads to the child as constant criticism, that’s probably the headline. You say you’re not aiming for pro or scholarships, but the environment you describe is exactly the one built for families who very much are. Maybe the move isn’t figuring out how to get his groove back on the top team. Maybe it’s letting him step off the treadmill for a while and remember that soccer is a game. The stakes here are actually very low. Let him find something he IS passionate about if soccer isn’t it. [/quote]
