So my oldest boy is 4. And he's a big kid. He's already 48" tall and won't be 5 until July.

And I've already got the dad of one of the kid's in his pre-K class trying to get me to have my boy come out for tackle football with a local youth team. Evidently this dad has a couple older boys (like 3rd & 5th graders) who play and he runs the organization.

I'm not going to let my 4-year old play tackle football yet. I'm not worried about him getting hurt, just that it's too early for a kid to be playing tackle football at that age.

Trying to find a tactful way to decline this shit without being a total asshole.
