"Defeated"

They should stop this. It's not worth it. The kid might have some glory now. But glory is fleeting. He will end up only growing to about 5'3. Then what? I'm short so I know that lifting this heavy weight at such a young age is not worth it. Does anyone think that there is a future in weight lifting? You gonna be making the big bucks are ya? I don't think so. Being short equals less pussy. Trust me.
