<p>Does son have a partner? I mean, he has to dance with someone, right? Is she leaving, how old is she, or does the partner change? Has he had the same partner all along or has she changed? What if she leaves, would he easily find a new one or what would happen?? I ask because would his interest be the same if she left for college?</p>
<p>I have NO idea how this sport works, so am just wondering if he has thought it all through...if his grades keep slipping, his prospects for college will narrow as well</p>
<p>Another thing to remind son, it may not seem like it, but if he wants to do something physical, he can get injured and then what?</p>
<p>My husband was national soccer player in Ireland when he was sixteen. But he decided to go to college because he knew he needed to. He played semi semi pro for years, and still plays for fun. </p>
<p>I understand the thrill of victory, but if he doesn't do college in the next couple of years, I would bet you he won't at all.</p>
<p>Just some thoughts.</p>
<p>PS_ I think Ballroom dancing is cool. Once we were watching it, and my husband, with his two left feet, got upset because the Brazilians came in first beating the Americans, and he thought the Americans were better...it was like he was watching a prize fight</p>
