bockman : please print out all of your post. Put them in a shoebox and open them up when your son is 10 or 12 years old.

Wrestling is a tough sport but it isn't always because a kid is not competitive like you say. There are many kids who have placed at kids state only to quit later on. I can give you a few names if you want but personal message me because I don't like saying names on a public forum. These kids quit because 1. they were tired of spending all day in a gym or 2. they were burned out by the pressure and their parents or 3. their friends are doing basketball and want to be with their friends or 4. they don't have the money, time, or family support to continue

You are so sure you are right about your son being left out but you REFUSE to listen to anyone else. That is no way to debate. You have to listen to both sides. Everyone here is trying to tell you that your son is NOT left out of wrestling. No one said he can not go to sub-districts, districts or state. He can enter and yes, he will have to go against some 8U but in some weight classes, he will be with mostly 6U kids. Show me the rule that says he can't go?

What people are trying to tell you is that maybe you need to consider whether having your son finish the season is the right thing to do. Only you can make that decision. But do listen to some of us who have been in this organization a lot longer than you. We have seen way too many kids drop out of wrestling after being pushed and pushed. We don't want to see another one.
