[quote=Anonymous]I have said this before about my son. I have a tall, relatively athletic son and I think people expect he's going to be much more competitive than he is. He really just does sports for fun to be with his friends and because we think he should stay active. He has other non-sports things he loves and is passionate about. For me, I think it's also to make the point that sports is not everything to everyone despite the US being a pretty sports-obsessed culture. Especially for boys, there is just this assumption they all love sports and that's their thing. Can't tell you the number of adults that ask him what sport he plays. (As opposed to what do you enjoy doing or something like that.) But I appreciate hearing OP's perspective and can see how this comment could land the wrong way. So something to think about.[/quote]
