Am I The Jerk?! Can she keep her kid from football if he’s struggling in academics?

In this week’s edition of “Am I The Jerk” a mom is trying to show her son that grades are more important than sports… her son and husband don’t agree. Is she the jerk?!

Am I a jerk for not letting my son play football because of his bad grades? My husband is as mad about this as my son and they both think I’m a jerk but I’m trying to teach him that academics are more important than sports. What are your thoughts on this parenting decision? Does this make me a jerk?
