[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you have to keep at it, keep at finding things and keep at encouraging those things and keep your kid attending. You're the quitter, by the sounds of things. I don't mean to be cruel - its just the long list of things your kid has quit, is quite extensive. I think its fine to try a bunch of things out though, not everyone wants to be an Olympic skiier or an ice-skating queen.[/quote] Op here. Unless you have a kid like this, you may not fully understand. I have two boys and the younger one is not particularly skilled in any activity. He sometimes wants to stop, but we can have a conversation about it and the importance of finishing, then considering something new to try. It's just not the same with older DS. Yes, we'll keep trying and encouraging him, but it is exhausting and often leads to turmoil in the family dynamic. [/quote] I do fully understand, I am the self confessed quitter above. My mother enabled me, too.[/quote]
