[quote=Anonymous]College is a really high barrier and that seems like a goal that you shouldn't be wondering if you can reach. My kid with ADD excels at hockey; he has played house and travel and he is good - he isn't excellent and he has no options for college, but he is enjoying it at the high school level. He simply isn't good enough for college, but his older brother also plays hockey (not ADD and is in college now) and he now plays in an adult league so I feel like his hockey was great - he has a sport for his adult time in his life. I think ADHD is hard for some team sports and some kids do well and others don't. But I kind of don't like your idea that you would take away supports (practice training, etc) because then the kid will be frustrated and fall behind and that seems terrible. I would continue if you can afford time and money and if you kid wants to. You can also try other sports as your kid gets older and changes their mind a bit.[/quote]
