[quote=Anonymous][quote]He needs to be doing sports -- that's what'll make him fit in regardless of height. I don't see how he's disadvantaged at any sport besides basketball and football -- and even those in 2nd grade will be fine; it's not like he's trying to make high school varsity or get recruited to a D1 school. Yep. My second born little son is a soccer phenom. He even plays up in age--on top travel team. Going into 4th grade. He has super self-esteem and doesn't even seem aware most kids are taller---or he doesn't give a shit. Lots of friends, not shy. Filled with 'tude. He waivers between 16-20% height. His older brother two years older is 85% height.[/quote] OP here. I feel like maybe I wasn't clear. I don't think he is not great at sports because of his height. He is just a kid who happens to be both (1) short and (2) not especially athletic. These are two things that are difficult for a boy. [/quote]
