My ds is in a lot of activities too but doesn't seem to like any of them. He is in the National Junior Honor Society doing lots of community outreach and tutoring. He is a Life Scout and is very heavily involced with soccer. He even did the middle school production of "Cinderella" he was running crew. Doesn't like center stage like Sam. He is also involved with his junior high youth group at church. Just can't get the kid motivated for anything. I'm hoping high school will give him more motivation for extra curricular activities. He does a lot but not very willingly. It is always a push. The age and gender?? Maybe. But I just hate seeing him spend all day in front of the game boy etc. If I let him, he would. Sam is just so much more motivated. I always pray for patience with my ds. I know the two kids are totally different and I accept that, but he has so much potential. I see it everyday when he gets excited about something. I'm praying he will find his nitch in hs.!!
