[QUOTE="TiredSoul, post: 387106, member: 3930"] My son is exactly like that so there is no way I would have him participate in competitive sports. He plays sports thru our YMCA which is non-competitive and he also participates in Cub Scouts. Swimming was also a good sport for him. He does not do well with competition. I agree he needs the positive social experiences, but if it is ending with him having to be carried out of there kicking and screaming, it probably isn't a good fit for him. With the Tae Kwon Do Camp, I would probably speak to the person in charge in the beginning and explain your son's issues and ask if they can work with that and provide him the extra encouragement he needs. I also agree with HaoZi - my son is the same way. We have had absolutely awful mornings that have left me in tears for most of the day and it turns out his day at school was great - and vice versa.
