[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not sports it's the lesson of being there for the team. It's a a very American thing. Some of us opt out of team sports for this reason and some of us are attracted to it for that reason. [/quote] But that’s sort of BS because a kid’s life is dictated by the parents’ lives. Who is blaming a SIX year old because his parents have plans and he needs to be with them? [/quote] There's a meme out there that goes: "I was late for practice so the coach made me run laps. My dad's the coach. He drove me to practice." The point is - in modern US sports culture even though kids are definitely reliant on their parents, those parental decisions are reflected back onto the kids.[/quote]
