My son is playing in a tennis tournament tomorrow. He's playing some
of the best kids in texas. He has adhd and this drives me up a wall.
I wish he would practice hard and prepare like he should. I am
concenred about him getting a tennis schlorship. I am nervious about
this tournament because I am paying money that I really don't have. I
have to really sacrafice to take him to tournaments. I do it because
it's very important to me that he get the oppertunity to do well. I
want him to have the oppertunity that I never had. It's important to
me that my son not suffer because of my ADHD. I promissed my son that
if he brought up his grades in school and practice hard I would make
sure he gets to go to his tennis tournaments. The reality is I have
to sacrifice to allow him to go. It drives me up a wall that he's so
cavalier about the money and his game. I wish he was more intense
about his game and future. But it's his life and I guess i have to
accept it. But I'm very nervious---I'm praying that he does well.
I'm nervious about his proformance but my boy is just relaxed. I
don't know what to think. I'm just trying to be supportive--positive
and kick his butt because of this ADHD he has--he doesn't connect the
dots well.
