Neither one of my sons was very athletic at a young age. One liked to draw, like his father, and the other liked books. When my oldest wanted to try Karate, I joined with him. It was something we could do together. He stuck with it for almost two years before he grew tired of the tough workouts. I never pressured him to continue. When I started something as a child, my father NEVER let me quit. If it's not fun, they'll eventually get bored. Even as an adult, I like to try different things. Some I've stuck with, but others went by the wayside. I continue with my two loves, running and writing, and never plan to stop.
