[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He is 13 years old and this is a decision he can make for himself. Talk to him about what he wants to do.[/quote] +1 I’d have a frank discussion with him about how he’s thinking about the year ahead. If your kid likes the activity and is willingly participating in all aspects of the team, I would wait it out. Not being the best on the team and not having a body type for long-term success aren’t reasons to pull a 13-year old out of an activity they enjoy. FWIW, my teen decided to leave an all-consuming pastime to focus on high school sports. It was close to a year after I saw it coming, but I’m really glad it was my teen’s decision, not a decision mom made for them. [/quote]
