[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, it sounds like you need to find the right supports to "get it together" more.  Whether that's carpools or better calendar management (or something else), this will be a problem at any club that you go to if your attendance is going to be so hit-or-miss as to impact your kids' training or the experiences of other swimmers on the team.

Ugh, disagree 1000%. Teachers and coaches should support kids and their wellbeing over swim times. All the changes you describe are a lot, is it possible the coach isn’t aware?

In any case, since it sounds like you are getting into more of a routine, I would see how it goes in the next few months. And consider speaking to your kids’ coaches to explain the lack of consistency if you haven’t already done so. If the coaches are not immediately receptive to listening and asking how they can accommodate your kids’ adjustment to their life changes, then yeah, I would switch them. Kids should feel supported by their coaches, not sandbagged. [/quote]
