[quote=Anonymous]DS is 10, an excellent student, and terrible at sports. He cannot or does not feel that he can join the gang of sporty boys in his grade who hang together at recess playing soccer and such. One or two of the kids sneer at him for not being good at sports. He puts up defenses against this that aren't the best but most importantly just feels lousy about how the sports affects his standing in the social ladder. How can we practically help? We don't care about it at all but he lives in a world where it does seem to matter. Being a bit of an academic superstar does not seem to be at all helpful. Its not how one gains position in the world of 10-11 year old boys. I hate thinking like this! [/quote]
