[QUOTE="DDD, post: 456025, member: 35"] Like others I understand. You want [B]so[/B] much for them to blend in...and for many of our difficult child's it is just an impossible dream. Two less traditional sports that "some" of us have had success with are bowling and cross country. Both are more individualized teams. Alot of CD families found bowling to be the best choice. For us...well it kinda worked. A few had great success with cross country because each kid is part of a pack but distanced from in unison goals. For hyper kids it is an opportunity to run out their excess energy. Neither was a huge success for our difficult child (a bit of an understatement, lol) but he had the opportunity to refer to "his team" and "his friends". In some communities the bowling alleys are part of a National organization and they give awards to almost all participants with scholarships etc. for those who are talented. The frequent awards have built self esteem for some difficult child's. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
