[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 237842, member: 3444"] I had no idea! This might be something I'll look at for difficult child 2. He is playing basketball right now and his coach is a total jerk. difficult child 2 has been in tears sometimes because he knows the coach favors some of the better players, and he has a win-at-all-costs attitude. difficult child 2 is not fast, and does not have all the skills some of the other boys have. But he wants to play and he wants to have fun. In fact, he scored tonight, made two rebounds and had some great blocks. But all the coach can do is criticize the boys for what they didn't do. No praise for what they did right. Anyway, difficult child said he's open to the special needs division that the league has and said he'd rather have fun and be able to play than be on a team like the one he's on now. I hate it when adults act like idiots with kids. [/QUOTE]
