Keep up his interest by finding FUN exercises which reward him for the effort he puts in! If you do something DAILY with him, practice dribbling the ball (many point guards in the NBA grew up by bouncing their ball to school, playing a lot, and bouncing their ball all the way home). Pete Maravich would have his Dad drive the car slowly while Pete sat in the front passenger seat with the window rolled down. He bounced the ball outside the car door!!!\nPete would also take a LOT OF SHOTS everyday! He would probably shoot a minimum of 500 shots (made shots) before he quit practice. But, if your son does NOT want to do the hard work it takes to get better, you will have to find a way to motivate him! Take him to some games High School, College, or NBA games can often inspire others to want to get better! My cousin was once a WORLD CHAMPION in the NBA and his desire rubbed off onto me. Hard efficient planning and follow through will get you where you want to go! It is good that you are starting early!\nAll of those exercises you mentioned will help: Stretching, warming up, skipping rope, jumping, ball handling skills, shooting drills, hand-eye coordination drills etc...MIX it UP and he will have fun while getting better!\n\nGOD BLESS!

he could but it might not be the greatest idea......he may end up hurting himself again and even worse than before.....his best bet is to check with the doctor first to see how he's healing.\n\nif does get to ride tell him good luck for me!

First of all, I think it is a great thing that he is currently being evaluated. Sounds like Aspergers is a possibility...in my opinion...but could be several other disorders.\nTo address his needs now...try to give him something to do with his hands (holding something, etc). Explaing 'personal space' by describing a 'bubble' that is around people. He may not enter someone elses bubble without their permission...but explain what he can do...shake hands, wave, hi-five. Try to remain positive and give lots of good feedback when he soes something desired...rather than lots of negative when he does something wrong. But, in order to do that you need to explain the 'rules' of what is appropriate more than once. You can even try coming up with a behavior modification system, (for example, stickers for each 10 minute period with positive behavior). I wish I could help more, but with a limited knowledge of the situation, this is the best I can do.\nOnce he is evaluated you will have the benefit of a team to work directly with him and possibly you to help him integrate into the classroom.\nGood Luck

I wanna be like you! :)\n\nThat's so awesome.  When you're out on bail, you should sue...you're good at that right?  \n\nThe next time you do it...give him an atomic wedgie while pinning him to a tree.  That, instead of the putting knee to neck manouever, might not result in assault charges.  \n\nBut call me on the cell.  I'll come right over an videotape it so that you can prove your case in court.

I think that it would be worse if he wasn't involved in some type of physical activity. It is a good bonding time for the two of you ,he is developing his motor skills and he is having a great time. It is a win, win situation!

This is what my recommendation is.\n\nGood food and Stretching exercises.\n\nI have an article on this subject please read it and understand it.\n*********************************************************************\nIncreasing the Height \nBy \nminootoo\n\n\n\nYou did not say how old you are. But you are under 18 years of age.\n\nIn rear cases, you can increase the height up to age 30.\n\nYou said you have been Cycling. That is a good exercise and fun too.\n\nYou need to adjust the seat so that when you paddle from seating position you will actually stretch your legs, it is a difficult position but doable. For safety you need to be on track and not in traffic, safety first.\n\nThe FEW things I did at least helped me.\n\nSwimming. \n\nNot just playing in water, but serious laps type swimming, do not try to beat the clock but steady full strokes swimming. Remember slow and steady wins the race.\n\nStretching exercises on floor.\n\nFind them on line.\n\nChin ups.\n\nFull stretch type.\n\nSwinging from a rope.\n\nFull stretch climbing.\n\nIn other words do things that require stanching.\nSTRETCH-STRETCH-STRETCH-STRETCH\n\nPS\n\nIn the morning after good night sleep every one is about 1/2 inch to 1 inch taller. This is because the soft tissue between the bones recovers during the time when there is no weight on them.\n\nOlder people loose height due to bone loss. I was 5', 7'' I am only 5', 5".\n\nIssue of Genes: \n\nYou know only the active genes but genes can stay dormant for generations.\n\nI believe that every one has some tall height genes, dormant or active; I again believe that certain exercises can activate those.\n\nAgain Swimming: \n\nYou will start out with half a lap and build up day by day, half a lap at a time. Then you will swim non stop for 1/2 an hour.\n\nThe speed is not important but you must use various strokes and do them correctly, completely, slowly and perfectly. This way you will have full stretch, and its benefit.

I hear some boxers do a lot of jump roping and spitting when they need to make weight class.  Probably not very healthy, but might work.  Just remember, you might dehydrate.

Try pliometrics. Lunges work too. Jumping rope and anything that can make your muscles think they have to work harder than they do. Figuratively speaking of course. Try tying a piece of surgical tubing to your ankle and anchor it somewhere. Make sure it is resistant enough and do high-knee type steps.

i guess it would depend on how much he practices, i dont believe there is a set distance that someone should be able to throw. just have him practice enough to get better, but not too much to injure himself

different phycologies work against different kinds of bullies. Perhaps he acts that way because at home, he doesn't get the attention that he needs, in which case you may try to counter-act his aggressiveness by showing an interest somehow, without giving him the wrong idaea. try asking him if he saw a movie you think is cool, or ask him if he's heard the new thing on the radio, or whatever. perhaps he acts this way because he hasn't run into anyone who'll stand up to him. try telling him-look, bozo-I'm not amused by the five-year-old baby routine, why don't you try something new like acting your age? or some other thing like that. remember, confronting people's negative behavior does not mean you are looking for a fight, only that you want them to get a firm message-back off. try a few different things, but try to be tactful.

Muscle flexibility is the key to quickness. Stretch before and after workouts extensively. Also, he needs to train on speed drills, running thru tires, shuttles cones an stuff like that.

Tie a thin rope around the base, and start to thread it up, until the skin won't stetch any farther. Give it a couple to calm down, and then add another coupe of twists. Allow at least 20 minutes, he'll numb up and you can do anything you want to do.

Bet you physically jump when startled, too, don't you? I used to do it. Type A personality, very tense, jumpy, rattled easily, emotional? The only thing that worked was slowing down my metabolism, extra Vit. B compounds, and anti-depressants. Recently I started taking a new cholesterol med and the jumpy and shaking the leg is back. I will be asking for a change in meds but you could cut back on sugar, caffeine, nicotine, and find lots of activity to keep you moving, until you can start to get your sleep regularly. Continue to pay attention to what your body is telling you, try to slow down (take longer to eat, walk slower, dress slower), anything you can slow down enough and long enough for it to become a habit. Sorry, but the cure truly is a long hard road, and you'll probable get there when you get old anyway.

no, i do not think you should.. how would you feel if some real damage happened to  your brother... and there very easily could be.. you do not know what could happen and neither does he...people jumping on your stomach can do great damage.. he wants to prove he is tough .. for why... i would not go along with it and have it on my consious anyway...but you are the one that has to live with it if damage is done... so i hope the best for you all..
