After begging for a year, I finally agreed to splurge... and drive all the way across the county... and sign him up for the competitive rock climbing team. He's in the beginner group now, but he's working very hard to move up as soon as possible. Since he started a month ago, he has been up there about 4 times a week climbing and working out. I'm thinking this is the best fit of any non-tech activity he's ever tried! This week is assessment week, so he's really trying to make it to the next "hold" color. The kid has blisters on his hands, and, most importantly, he's lifting those 50lb feed bags for me! See, it totally pays off.
Truth: The smile and dedication is payment enough!
