[quote=Anonymous]My stepson is one of those kids who enjoys sports and thinks that means he's guaranteed to be a pro athlete one day. He is athletic, but is no star. He plays many sports (middle school) but does not particularly excel at any specific one and is VERY small. I think he likes that they keep him busy and active, but in a couple years here when he gets into high school he's going to have to face facts that pro sports is not in his future. DH has accepted this and doesn't encourage any pipe dreams of DSS one day being a pro athlete. He encourages him to do well in the sports he's in, but has made it clear that there's expectations of college and a career, and not banking on the minuscule chance of being drafted to the NFL.
