MY kids are genetic freaks of nature.
My oldest son 12years old is currently undefeated in greco wrestling. KId is phenomenal and it's his passion and I support him 100%. All thou, I'd love for him to play baseball and football, over the homo wrestling and MMA, I support him and do it with him to show support. My youngest son 7 years old - is a beast as baseball and football. He's always being drafted by some league to play with kids that are much older. I think it's a little insane as I want him to continue to develop but the opportunity for exposure at such a young age is there for him. It's stressful because, football - it typically goes by weight and/or age. He's 7 years old and 55 lbs, solid. But when compared to the kids in the league, he's extremely small. Thats what scares me. He's the half back and the safety - and his intensity and heart keeps him competing with kids a lot older. But I think I"m going to try and keep him at the level he SHOULD be in for developmental reasons. I huge kid landing on my son can end him easily, considering he's so small in comparison to those in the league. It's a tough decision, but as a parent, I have to do whats best for him. It's no surprise my children are very athletic, I was really athletic as well and still am. I'm involved in everything they do, as far as coaching their teams and even at home. I do not allow them to sit in front of a monitor and play video games. Thats a privileged. They understand that if they want to grow up and be the superstars they dream to be, it takes work. SO we do just that, WORK. My sports were baseball, football, track n field, swimming/diving and boxing. Football and baseball being my 2 favorite were shattered in a college game when my ACL and Achilles tore. Not fun. I was going to pursue boxing but the birth of my oldest slowed that down for me and I ended up giving up on it, sadly. It's how you raise them. Genetics are a big factor but how you raise them, is essential. I've coach both of my boys in every sport they compete in and see the difference between parents who spend the time I spend with mine and parents who just allow their kids to sit in front of a TV for either watching TV or playing video games. There is a major difference in the level of intensity and hand eye coordination when competing against one another. Parents these days just allow their kids to play games day in and day out and it's killing their potential... Their natural born gifts (if they had any passed down genetically) Thank god my boys have good genes from both his mother and myself. She was really athletic as well and played softball all the way through college nearly making pro until she met me and kind of gave up on it, smh. You guys can talk all the shit you want, but remember the name "SANTIAGO" Because in either baseball, football or wrestling and/or MMA that name will take over once my kids are at that level of competition later in life. Watch. |
