before he turned in to a full fledge difficult child, my son played baseball, basketball and football.
His true love was football. He has played since pee-wee and was truly a gifted athlete.
He stopped playing in his 10 grade yr and has never returned.
I am hoping that being back in the gym working out brings back good memories for him. He used to live in the gym working out.
Maybe some self satisfaction and positive energy will make a difference
