That press is a fine line isn't it at that age.
Most kids his age would've been worried about whether they had too many pimples, who'll be their first root and getting home late without getting caught by the folks.
While I don't know David's situation, I do recognise that the pressure these kids are put under is pretty scary. From the age of 12 now, kids have to start thinking about their football career if they are indeed to make it.
Don't want anything falling out of the closet, so to speak, when Kevin Sheedy comes on his recruting visit and snoops through your bedroom.
