Reply to "How to deal with son deciding not to pursue college baseball"

Tribal:

my oldest son played a year in college then hung it up. It was really hard on me for a while as I could not "fix" it for him. I wondered what I could have done differently to set him up better for college baseball. Then, one day he was home and we talked through it. He told me face to face that he enjoyed the time we spent together in the game, but he just didn't want to play anymore. That made it ok for me to also let go of the game. He said he was happy without baseball and that lifted the weight off my shoulders, a weight I put there myself.
