Am thinking "why"?....my son has opted not to play football this year.....When I questioned it, he gave me a slew of silly reason(s)...each one, I had a solution to....finally he just blew up....
17 is a very tedious age for parent(s)....perhaps even moreso for the teenager.
I suggested a "walk down to the dock" to cool off for both us....Whatever his "problem" is...eventually it will come out, I'm not gonna push it....I'm thinking he may have lost the position he was playing to another kid...if so, he's having a problem with his disappointment and getting mad over it surely doesn't help. Hopefully, things will work out the way it should be....and maybe a lesson well-learned...that no mater how good you are at anything, there is and always will be someone who can do it better.....
