Not sure that the push for perfection will serve him well in the long run...

This is what I meant when I said it was sad. There was clearly so much pressure on that kid, and it sounds like he didn't get much chance to play. I can understand the parents' POV, and yet sometimes I think these kids who are compelled to achieve by family pressure crash and burn later on. It can get to be overwhelming, and I worry that a kid like this is going to go off the rails when a failure happens.
