he'll get mad at me..
I'm a high school sophomore. I've been playing volleyball for travel ever since I was in 7th grade. This year, I haven't really been interested in playing volleyball. I didn't try out this year for club, but they have an opening for me. My dad's heart is set on me playing volleyball, but it doesn't interest me anymore. When I told him I didnt want to try out, he got really mad at me. Should I play travel or not? I don't want to but it would make my dad happy. If not, what should I say to him that won't make him upset or mad at me? Please help!

Do you hate volleyball or is it just not that interesting? You've been playing since 7th grade. It would look great on a college application to be able to say I've done this consistently for six years. Colleges look for that. They want to see that you can stick with something for at least as long a time as you will be in college. They don't want to admit people who have dropped something because they fear they will be giving a spot to someone who will quit. Do you have other interests you have been pursuing for that length of time? Then you can substitute them on your college applications. Otherwise, I would stick with it. It might influence what college you get into which does affect the rest of your life. Besides that, it is great exercise and everyone needs that.

ok, i think you should do what ever makes you feel good. but if you don't play, tell your dad that you don't want to do something you don't want to do.

Of course I am going to say do the volleyball. I mean if you dad really wants you to be happy just explain him that volleyball doesn't tickle your pickle any more lol and that you aren't into it as you used to be. I think he will understand I have been in this predicament when I was into Softball. Everything worked out for the best. I hope everything works out. Hope I helped. Send Feedback.

if you want to then play it and if you don't then don't
it seems like you don't ok so then tell him your not interested in it at all and just tell him the truth...he might get mad but if he does try to stay a while away
...i hope this helps

Just explain to him calmly that you aren't interested in playing volleyball this year. Say it like you aren't expecting a fight or an argument because there shouldn't need to be one. Maybe you have other things you rather focus on, or maybe you were sick of the traveling, any reason that is true you can give but in the end the best reason is that you don't want to. It is pointless to do things you don't want to do, you'll only do them half-heartedly and in this case, let your team down.
Your Dad might be upset with your decision, you should expect that and that is okay, but there is no reason at all for him to be mad with you. If he does get mad, ignore him; he has no right to be angry with you for making the decision that makes you happy.

Hey! I had a very similar problem this year too...I have been playing basketball for years and this year I decided I really wasn't into it...I wanted to do the play...my mom was leaning toward the play and my dad toward bball...I felt bad about choosing the play becuase I knew what my dad thought but I did it any way and I'm glad I did. I think you should tell your dad the truth. Do what makes YOU happy not your dad. He needs to understand YOU are the one playing volleyball, not him...Do what you want...you wont regret it! Hope I helped!!! <3

Hey there! The best thing is to be honest and tell him how you feel. Set a time where both of you can sit down and have a meeting together on how you both feel on your joining volleyball this year. Just be straight-forward,be honest and tell him that although you know he has particular reasons for you to join volleyball this year, you want to try different things. Hopefully, your dad will understand because it truly is your decision. Take care always, and I wish you the best of luck....
