[quote=Anonymous]Mom of a sports kid here. We are not the pushy parents, at all. But our kid desperately wants to play travel soccer and travel BB and whatever else he can find that involves him being in constant motion and hanging around with friends. For him, the physical activity, competition (healthy - he smiles win or lose), and friendships are worth it. But we’re probably not the level of sports parents you’re thinking about. That said, the parents we know that fit the description of at the pool every morning do it because it’s how their son burns his incredible excess energy as well. Some of these kids aren’t in it for the Olympics, they’re in it for the self-regulation (energy level, anxiety, attention issues, etc.). Sometimes a lot of exercise is really necessary for certain kids. [/quote]
