I would talk to your mom about how you feel and that you are worried about your injury. My brother blew both of his knees, my oldest brother hurt his back, and now my younger brother is a full back on varsity, and my nephew is a running back.. They have all been slaves to the game.. But they have the will and the want.. I hope you make the best decision for you.. Take care.
I would explain to your doctor that the toll on your body is too much and you don't want to continue playing. Depending on the doctor they may help you. If it doesn't work.. Explain to your mom that you don't want to play football anymore. There is much more to life then football. Your mom will understand. And especially after you have been hurt. I'm suprised she isn't begging you not to go back on the field.
Simply tell your mother that you are not interested in playing football anymore. Find something else to replace it. Say you are interested in doing something more meaningful. Maybe take guitar lessons or some other musical instrument. I'm sure your mother would understand.
Tell your parents that it is wrong to force you to do something that you do not wanna do, especially after your latest injury and that you wanna do something usefull with your life. Don't lie. It only causes trouble.
Tell her you are gay and rather takes up dancing or acting.
tell your mom that you don't want to risk getting injured again
consequences1st tell your mom why you don't want to be in the football team ! I would tell your doctor too why you just want 2 quit this sport i believe its too dangerous for you and Tell your coach that its was fun being able to play in the team but your knee its getting too injured !!! consequences
quit.
Being an adult is taking responsibility for your life and knowing what's important and what isn't. You don't need any excuses or someone to lie for you (wasn't that a plot on ER recently?). Lots of boys your age chose to quit the team because they have other priorities and interests and there are only so many hours in the day, and only 7 days in a week. I don't mean this in a sarcastic way, believe me, but you don't need help, just a backbone (self-confidence that you know what's in your own best interest). It will all work out for the best.
Tell your mother that it takes too much of your time that you would rather spend on studying and getting excellent grades to go to college. Most parents would be happy to know that you are thinking ahead and that you understand the possibliity of future as a pro football player are miniscule. If she doesn't respect that attitude and thought process then I would wonder what her motives are to keep you playing now that you will be injury prone to that knee.
Let her know that you have homosexual tendencies and should not be hanging around naked, buffed men.
Tell her that it isn't that you don't want to quit football just because you're bored of it and just don't want to (Well, it's the truth. you really don't want to play because it takes up too much time. Just don't mention that =P) Explain to her the effects of all the pre-conditioning, training, practices, and games on your injury. It's already messed up and your injury still hurts.
