[quote=Anonymous]It is so bad to be pegged as a good athlete early. My daughter was identified as a great athlete and suffered a bad injury that has been awful for her self esteem because she defined herself as an athlete. My son was always average and is now having a great time in high school because he has come into his own with a great work ethic and interest. I am a super hands off parent. I followed both my son and my daughter’s lead. I let her play sports whenever she wanted. I wish I would have said no sometimes. She was just having so much fun and it is so hard for her now.[/quote]
