[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Raise the child you have, not the child you want. If you must insist on trying to keep active in athletics, perhaps choose non-team activities. E.g. Fencing, martial arts, etc. Sports that don't involve a ball.[/quote] +1 My mom is super athletic and loves all sorts of sports, but she let me be my nerdy bookish self. As an adult, I've grow to appreciate activities like running and yoga, but team/ball sports will never be my thing. Also consider: would you raise a girl the same way, or do you feel like a boy in particular needs to know sports?[/quote]
