[quote=Anonymous]Does your child like it or does he/she want to quit. If your kid wants to quit they should quit now. However, if your child likes it they can continue and would be able to compete at the college level if they are making Zones (particularly in the winter). By JOs do you mean junior nationals? If so they should be able to get a college scholarship. I was a pretty decent swimmer like your kid - made zones every year but was just shy of qualifying for junior nationals. I had scholarship offers and got into and attended a college that I had no business going to academically (I'm sure though that my grades would have been much better if it weren't for all the hours in the pool). But if your kid isn't enjoying it anymore it's not worth the sacrifice.[/quote]
