More of a WWYD I supposr. I feel like a cow.
He's just told me he really doesn't want to play, he's worried about letting his team down, making silly mistakes and getting it wrong. He's actually pretty upset. (I've never told him he's done badly, its kids football ffs and he so says his team mates and coaches haven't either).
I've told him that he won't be letting anyone down by letting a goal in but that he would by not turning up to play or pulling out 2 hours before kick off. We've agreed that he'll play and that I'll speak to his coaches about his confidence but I feel like an absolute cowbag. He's 11 and I feel old enough understand the importance of a team and team work. WWYD?
