Learn Woodworking!!
If you have a teenager that is feeling bad about himself, and he is becoming evasive and seeming to withdraw and does not want to talk "about it", perhaps his self esteem is suffering and he needs to regain some confidence in his abilities. It might be worth a try to see if he would like to participate in any of the following:
Baseball, golf, gymnastics, football, tennis, basketball, indoor handball, judo, soccer, wrestling, hockey (field and ice), ice skating, rock climbing, rugby, skiing, archery, sailing, surfing, badminton, ballooning, boxing, horseback riding, canoeing, snowboarding, swimming, table tennis, tae kwan do, volleyball, motor racing, water polo, bungee jumping, bicycling, springboard diving, mountain climbing, curling, polo, fencing, bob sledding, yachting, softball, rowing, shooting, speed skating, ski jumping, cross country skiing, down hill skiing, back packing, cricket, tobogganing, short track (ice) slalom, weight lifting,. And then there is Track & Field! including the high jump, pole vault, hurdles, javelin, shot put etc.
Don't forget reading, cooking, plain old walking, learning a foreign language. Consider art and music, visiting a museum. How about learning wood working? Or knitting, dancing, sewing,. There is volunteerism in almost any area of interest. Would your teenager be interested in learning more about a specific religion, or many different ones? Remember Scouting can be really fun.
The possibilities are endless...truly!
Active kids thrive emotionally and physically. Interesting extracurricular opportunities help to build confidence in kids of all ages, especially hormone prone teenagers. Rebuilding a child's confidence and social skills through teamwork and discipline is a GOOD THING.
