i was never...say.."pushed" into doing sports, but it was ALWAYS encouraged by my parents. I mean would you rather have your son sitting in front of the TV or running around outside playing basketball, football, track.
i wished this kind of positive exposure about BJJ/grappling was around when i was a little kid, i would totally have wanted to do it. I did karate but i was really really young and did not enjoy it.
I would try to encourage your child to give it a try, i mean what kid doesn't like to wrestle around anyway...and this way they can get exercise, learn discipline...all the hoopla of doing a martial art. i say encourage him, but never demand he tries it.
