[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't push and let her have a life outside of sports [/quote] This. My kid's friends who do soccer have no time for anything else, it takes over evenings and weekends. Even though she likes it, I personally would consider dropping it for something less all-consuming. It's important to me that my kid have time for other things. [/quote] Some families love the all sports all the time life. Their friends and their kids' friends are teammates. When they do hang out, it's with those people. Their kids love the lessons and extra practices and the parents love the hustle. If it's working for a family, why not? Obviously it doesn't work for you. It doesn't work for my family either. My kids play rec, intermediate (not full travel), and school sports as their inclinations lead and it's working. But I don't judge the others.[/quote]
