[quote=Anonymous]My DS is a recruited college athlete. Started playing his sport at 5 years old. YEARS of dealing with and hearing parents go on and on about their kid's playing abilities. YEARS of watching the cliques and how those parents tried to maneuver their kid's path. My DH and I just stayed off to the side. Our role was paying team fees, contributing to a coaches gift and washing their uniforms. Let our DS enjoy their sport. The best thing happened as the later years occurred. All of the "noise", especially from those parents, became less and less as they realized that their child was skilled but not going all that far after all. The quiet that developed at that point was welcomed and lovely.[/quote]
