He is ugly crying every day before practice and throwing games on purpose. He hates being pitcher.
So they put him on left field.
We had a huge fight after we taped his games and went over mistakes. He ended up getting grounded from fortnite for telling me to shut up
I want him to go pro or get a full ride somewhere. failure is not an option.

.
My brother said in front of him it's supposed to be fun and he never cared if he won't he just wanted to see his friends and get a happy meal after.

Sports were my life. My wife and i live and breathe sports. We were yelling at his games but we almost got kicked out and our son told us to stop. because we are embarrassing him.
My oldest daughter also quit cheerleading because my ex wife let her and she said the couch and the girls were mean. She would rather work. We don't want our kids failing in life. How do we make them stock with something.

Leave the kid alone and don't force him into sports unless he wants to play or even be interested in sports. I wish my parents had left me alone. I don't like sports, I hate getting sweaty, I hated moving around, I hate everything that they made me do and practice when I told them I didn't want to play sports. Maybe he will outgrow it, perhaps he will not. But he's only nine, so he's not surprised by his reactions. Kids are not exactly masters yet when it comes to communicating what they feel, what they want, etc.

I meant, don’t be surprised by his reactions not that he is surprised by his own reactions. Ugh, autocorrect kills slowly.

Let him focus on hobbies and interests he does like

It's perfectly okay for a child not to like sports. Forcing him will likely create resentment and a negative association with physical activity. I never played sports, as we were given the option. I studied music instead.

Embarrass him, best way to punish a kid into behaving better. It also turns into trauma but, y’know, c’est la vie.

Play sports with him

He doesn't want to play with me. My four year old daughter just wants to eat grass and jump in the mud. i am trying to get her ready for T-ball next year.

Lol how cute. Welp sounds about right for a 4 year old but your 9 year old... have you tried different sports? See which one he likes?
