Our kids get a waterpik when they get braces. Our dentist hasn't ever recommended more frequent cleanings but they're very cost conscious.
I don’t think so
I will preface this by saying we’re not in the DC area, so want to see what parents with experience in a variety of clubs at this level think.
We just found out that a parent on the team who had been the assistant coach for the ECNL—RL team our kid is playing for is now the head coach. The coach we were supposed to have will help out but probably not until later in the season—taking a step back for personal reasons.
On top of being a parent to a player on the team, the new coach is not qualified to be coaching at this level—hasn’t coached an 11 v 11 team before, and only has have a D license. Never played college level either.
So—is this something that would be allowed to happen in your clubs? We know another parent in the club who has a B license who was told he couldn’t coach his own daughter’s team (and is actually now coaching a boys team) but for some reason they’ve made an exception here.

We’re not in the DC area so YMMV, but Nike Blazer Mid are the shoes my 8th grader wanted this year. Then her 6th grade sister wanted them for her birthday too.
