I understand athletes will take summer classes - I played and did it myself - you are now inviting more issues, where to live in the summer (some schools close the dorms, no A/C, etc)or you just went through a grueling season starting in January, finished in May, took and successfully passed your 12 credits (that is all you need to play per semester) and now you have no money and were looking forward to hanging out on the beach back at your lifeguard job - well, sorry, you have to take 2 college classes in the span of 2 months so you can catch up or get ahead..it is not easy, so you get home for August, try to catch up with friends, rest for about an hour and start getting back into shape because the day you step back on campus there are 15 new darlings waiting to take your position....Make sure your son understands this it happens
