Cary, I have an "ask Cary" question. My youngest son is 10yrs old, he first started wrestling right before covid and he season got cut short. He started again this year and while he is a novice, he has not placed out of 3rd this whole year. He shows great promise and I love going to his matches and watching him (I grew up wrestling in Iowa) however, he doesn't seem like he wants to wrestle. He gets fired up for the tournaments, but he hates going to practice and complains about it right up until we get on the mat. He has fun with his friends and eventually likes it, but I feel like he will stop wrestling simply because of practice and (in my opinion) he's being lazy (I know he's only 10). Do you have any advice for me as far as getting him to want to do it more? I keep telling him that if cares just a little bit he will a great wrestler, he had medaled in all of his tournaments without caring at all. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.
