“My son loves playing hockey we have used his love of the sport to help drive his performance in the classroom. Overall he is a good student but recently he has been receiving poor grades. Our initial reaction is that he should not participate in extra curricular activities this spring and should focus on school. My concern is that if we take away the thing that he loves he may rebel and check out all together. Any thoughts on how to encourage him to go the extra mile in the classroom like he does on the ice without completely deflating him?” #AskPCA
