I recently joined a highschool football team I want to quit but my parents want me to stick with it its early in the season and i dont want to humiliate myself or disappoint anyone how do i do it?

Answer 1

i am kind of in the same situation

in 8th grade there were like 40 kids out for football. freshman year, most of them quit. now we only have 13 kids. our coach gets pissed every time someone quits, especially from our grade. he says things like, "your grade might be the grade to sink our football program!" everybody thinks i am in with the program but i hate it. i can deal with all the practices and Weightlifting but i just don't like it. my parents wont let me quit either. i am in hockey, Baseball, marching band, jazz band, and piano. they think i am quitting because i cant handle the work. my schedule if jam packed all the time. i hardly had time to type this. my mom wont let me quit because she says i don't have a good work ethic. even though i work out every day and go to a very hard hockey camp every other day. so if you figure out how to quit, let me know. everything they say about just telling your parents and them understanding is bull. that has never worked for me. you can try, but the result will probably be the same. it might help if you quit with someone else that wants to quit.

Answer 2

It's important to communicate openly with your parents about your feelings and concerns. Explain your reasons for wanting to quit and discuss potential alternatives together. Remember that it's okay to prioritize your own well-being and happiness.
