[quote=Anonymous]If you have the means, I would let your kid decide how much they want to do. My kids was good at baseball (almost all sports really) and I loved baseball so I kept pushing him and playing him up until he found himself on a travel team with kids with kids he didn't know that were all at least a year older than playing against kids he never met. Now he is playing other sports in high school and while he is polite about it, it is clear he will never step on a baseball diamond again. He is just sick of it and thinks of baseball as a job. If your kid is athletic, he will naturally gravitate towards a sport he is extremely good at without any pushing on your part. There is too much low hanging glory and recognition for an athletic kid to ignore it. [/quote]
