[QUOTE="klmno, post: 342557, member: 3699"] I think I would approach it this way: go thru the practices this week and try out on Sat., then think about it on Sunday. If you still want to quit on Monday, fine. If that causes WW3, I'd let it go. I agree with wanting to teach our kids to stick to things but he has stuck with this already and being an extra-ciricular activity, it just doesn't need to be at the top of my priority list, in my humble opinion. I figure it's my job to teach and enforce cerrtain things with my son but he has the right to make some choices about his activities outside of school- as long as they are constructive and don't interfere with other things, I try to be supportive. I figure these experiences can help him learn natural consequences and I'd prefer those mistakes to be made in a setting like that instead of at school, Know what I mean?? [/QUOTE]
