[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I read threads from Recent Topics and have observed that there are more pro-opening-at-all-costs posters on the Soccer Forum than any other, even in Health and Medicine or Politics, where people battle it out every day. Are any soccer parents concerned about balancing safety and continuing the sport? Do any understand that close contact will contribute to creating clusters? [/quote] The same is true in the Facebook Soccer Parents group. There is a huge movement to get back on the field, and many of the comments are a bit simplistic. I think for many parents there are very real financial / life changing issues at play in the next 12-24-36 months (i.e. college scholarships) and they've pineed so much on the soccer route they are fearful of anything that disrupts that path. I also find it interesting that in the UK and Europe, many of the PLAYERS are the ones not wanting to return until everything is safe. There have been several high profile players, and the players union, speaking out against a rush back to the pitch. Quite a bit different from the soccer parents. [/quote]
