After reading everything here, and private messages people have sent me I will not mention the AFA to him. He will have to pursue the AFA on his own if that is the direction he wants to go. I was doing my research early because I know my son; he does not talk just to be talking. He has big...

I do tend to do a lot of research on things that are important. I want to know exactly what they are getting into so I can have a smart conversation with them. After all I have read I will not be pushing him toward the AFA. If he goes the AFA direction it will have to be his own decision with...

I know now what he has to do to achieve his goal. Even if he does not want to go to the AFA, he will be prepared for most collages. I retired at a young age because I worked hard and had a plan. Great success in life comes with hard work and a plan. I find it hard to believe that a kid...

The reason for the original post was that I thought he would need letters in high school sports. Now that we know he can just continue to play for FC Dallas. He is happy with the news. He wants to check out the CAP program in the summer. He will not need to make anymore decisions until the end...

He has a lot of passions. He loves playing the violin in the school orchestra, playing soccer, and school. He did tell me earlier today that he does not care about high school soccer. He said he would rather be in the IB program. His only goal for soccer is having a sport that he can...

I want to thank everyone for all your help. All this is new to me. His academics program he chooses will dictate if he plays high school soccer. He did tell me he wants to drop down to a lower level team that does not travel as much so he can focus on other things. I have him write...

She packs his lunch every day, and she just signed him up today for tutoring at mathnasium. Lol He is in the 6th grade getting all A's. She thinks he should be doing 9th grade math. poor kid

His mom is what I was talking about. lol She thinks he should go to see the doctor every time his finger has a little sprain.

Is it better not to go to the doctor for small injuries? Most of the time nothing serious is wrong. Just making mom happy. Could doctor reports mess thing up?

Thanks for the advise. FC Dallas pays for everything if you are on the premier team. That is a big bonus.

You are correct. His goal is to play on the premier team. If he is on the premier team he may not be the captain. Is it better to play at a lower level and be the team captain?

You are correct high school soccer here in the Dallas area is not near as competitive as club soccer. He would love to support his school team if at all possible. H would play every day if he could. Lol

Great info. I was worried about only one sport, but his soccer is 12 months out of the year 4 times a week, He is the captain. He just does not have the time for other sports.

Thank you so much.

He has game systems now. He knows how to manage his time now. It was $250 well spent to make a point at a young age.

I am sorry. ECs SOEs CFA Thanks

Can someone tell me what the aggravations mean? I am new. Thanks

His mom is Korean, as most Korean moms they normally push their kids very hard at a young age. It all started when he was 6 years old. He was spending a little too much time playing video games. When his mom seen his report card the first 6 weeks of the grading period, she was upset with the...

Thanks Haieym. I understand where you are coming from. I just want him to understand what he is getting into. He will make his own decision on a career. He has to live his own life. I really don’t have to push him much. The kids he hangs with are very smart and they push each other. The only...

I defiantly don’t want him doing something his heart is not in. I don’t push him in soccer, he pushes himself. He just loves the game.
