[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 22287, member: 805"] Kjs, Sometimes what we want and what our difficult child's can give just don't jive. It may very well be that difficult child, while talented, is not at a point where he can handle the disappointment. Perhaps everyone needs to stand back and see how these outbursts are affecting difficult child both socially and healthwise. Having the coach, the refs, other parents and teammates witness this type of behavior definately will affect your difficult child socially. The fact that he gets so worked up that he couldn't breathe and was weezing shows that his disorder(s) are manifesting in dangerous physical areas. And, perhaps the biggest factor is the polarization of his parents regarding this issue. It may very well be that difficult child needs to take a break until he is able to handle the disappointment and competiveness of sports. I don't think I would be as concerned about him taking a break and being home than I would be worrying about his physical behaviors while participating. There is no benefit from his particpation if it is causing this many problems. If difficult child is puts up a huge fuss about it, should you choose to speak to him about it, bring a camcorder and tape his reactions. Could be eye-opening for him. That's just my two cents.
