[quote=Anonymous]FWIW, we are parents who generally don’t try to lobby or advocate for our kids when it comes to their soccer development. We don't watch practices, and watch games silently save for some claps and cheering when there is a goals. If the kids ask us to intervene, and if they have a point, we consider it (has not happened yet tho). Starting at 13, we told our DC that it was on them to communicate with their coach and advocate for more playing time or ask to play up, or for other opportunities, etc. But I wonder if that is too old? We have a younger child and should they be advocating for themselves even earlier?[/quote]
