I'm going into 9th grade adn I'm so exited. I have been a major athlete all my life. I played volleyball,swimming, adn lacrosse is my favorite sport of all, but when i play, especially lacrosse,I get way into the sport and my schoolwork drops. Since I'm going into high school, grades are really important. I want to give up sports and only play one sport & focus on my schoolwork, but I'm afraid my paretns (especially my dad) will get really mad. I always tlak to my parents about things and we have a great relationship, but idk what to do about this. PLEASE HELP!!
