I'm also wondering, if your son is decent-but-not-amazing at sports, is he even likely to make the school teams if he doesn't skip? If he did make them, would he ride the bench? Would *he* care if he missed that, or is it your DH or you who would miss it?
Luckily at school everyone gets to play the same amount until several grades later when they have to try out. He is not the star player but he hangs with the upper part of the team. I am seeing him loving basketball this year. It feels like he is apart of this group and it's helping his freindships.
Thanks Kriston. This is complex. It helps to hear what others have to say to help me know things to consider.
