[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid is in the shower sobbing after meets about why they can't cut time, OP here.[/quote] Just tell your kid to grow up. [/quote] I sincerely hope this is a joke. OP - my club swimmer has also been adding time. We are validating their frustration, but also trying to help them keep perspective and not be hard on themselves. This is just a snapshot in time really, influenced by many factors, and does not define who they are as a swimmer or athlete. I have a close friend who swam D1 whose number one advice to me as a swim parent is not to put pressure on my kid, take it slow, and to prioritize the joy of the sport over the numbers. [/quote]
