[quote=Anonymous]This is the age where he will need to start advocating for himself. You can't fix it for him and you need to stop thinking in those terms. Your son needs to learn that he won't always get his way and he sometimes has to be part of a team even if he has a smaller part in that team. Also, be careful to always assume that what your kid is telling you is exactly what happened. Your son was emotional when he relayed the story - he may very well have embellished the leader's response. It may not have been so harsh, but your son was taking it in the worst possible way. Remember that there is always 2 sides to the story, even when our own kids are involved. I wouldn't let him quit because he made a commitment and that shouldn't be taken lightly. You'll have to explain that you expect him to step up and do his best. A discussion about personal responsibility and proper behavior sounds in order.[/quote]
