Re: how to help a young kid
Sound like me when I was little. My teachers sent home a note to my mom to "buy me a ball". I had to play with said ball in gym class to develop better coordination.
I turned out ambidextrous, and a pretty damn good athlete. Buy him a ball. Play catch. Play frisbee. Get him a deck of cards and a card trick book.

Re: how to help a young kid
definately don't get him into gaming.
Get him a weight set. He is probably too self conscious to want to lift weights at a gym, so get him a bench, some dumbells, barbell and weights and point him to some websites, or buy him a book on lifting and dieting. Learning how the body can be manipulated is very interesting and complicated stuff... he might like it, and in a couple of years he will be looking much better than he does now. I really think this is your best option. I wish I'd have started working out and eating well when I was in highschool.

Re: how to help a young kid
my bad I didn't read that he was 10.
Get him in some sort of sport tho man. MAybe not a league or anything yet, but at least get him playing something at the park or whatever. Point is you need to have him doing something physical.
