[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. DS has a development coordination disorder and while he does swim for fitness, he is not going to he an athlete.. He is however does like theatre and we can encourage him to pursue it more seriously. Would that be helpful to break the stereotype? Thank you for the advice on teaching responsibility. No, we're not pushing for the Ivies or anything crazy like that. [/quote] I wouldn't worry about stereotypes. Just encourage him to do whatever it is that he truly loves. If you're pursuing a passion, you're going to get really good at it effortlessly and will find a way to turn it into a livelihood or at least a lifelong love. If that's theater, great! If he doesn't end up pursuing it as a career, the skills he learns there will easily transfer to other pursuits.[/quote]
