[quote=Anonymous]He probably felt coerced into saying yes to the sport because he was desperate to switch schools. I have an athletic kid too, amazing swimmer, then just didn’t want to swim anymore at age 12. It broke me. But I let her stop because it’s not her dream to swim. If her heart wasn’t in it why make her. Even though it was hard for me. She does soccer and basketball now which she loves, but one day she might want to give up one or both and as parents we need to be ok with that. They’re living their life. It’s not our life to live. So I wouldn’t make him do the school sport OP. Even though you feel like reneged on the deal, which he has. If he’s getting good grades and seems happy, I’d let him be. [/quote]
