Golfman25,
I truly sounds as though what’s happened is your boy now sees baseball as a job rather than as a source of pleasure and relaxation. There are some of us who actually love their job and can’t get enough of it at work or not, but most of us need to get away from our jobs and do something else in order to “blow out the cobwebs”. A kid at any age shouldn’t have a full time job. There’s just too many other things they should be doing to help them figger out what to do in this life.
My suggestion is to back off and let him do whatever he chooses with his personal time. Lord knows he’ll have to worry about a job soon enough.
