4 1/2 year old son won't participate in group sport

by lulu1313, Oct 28, 2007 02:02AM
My son is 4 1/2 yrs old.  He has recently enrolled in a group soccer class once a week with 15 other kids and 2 friends from his pre school.  He was very excited to get his new soccer cleats and shin guards to participate in the class.  On the first day of class he did not want to participate in the class
at all.  It is done with parent participation and I went with him.  I  tried in many ways to get him involved, but he only wanted to watch or kick the ball on his own.  I have to admit I was a little embarassed because all the other kids and parents participated. After class, he did play and have fun with his 2 friends I don't undersand why he wouldn't participate.  My son did not want to go back the next week, and my husbund says not to force it or he will not want to do activities in the future.
