I think if you are smaller you have to be that much more talented or work that much harder.

This is a tough one because if you read that statement as an absolute it's wrong, in my opinion. However, I would say that if two players had similar skills I feel the larger one would get the nod all else being equal. From my experience, the smaller athletic kids develop much younger/quicker than the bigger kids. The big athletic kids eventually catch up. Just my two cents.

I would be saying the same thing as your husband.... finish your commitment but it's tough to watch your kids not enjoy the sport. Good luck.
