[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you are overthinkiing things. I ask my son what he wants to do, accept the spot or not. He is old enough to make a decision about what he wants to do. If he wants to put his time and energy towards travel soccer, great. We have only one kid and earn decent salaries, so why not? If he wanted to drop it and do something else, that would be ok too. [/quote] This "My other kids have had to keep some of their activities to a minimum because of the oldest. I don't blame anyone but myself for this, though." :cry: I know you blame yourself for this, but why would you slight your other kids so the oldest can fulfill his desire to play soccer?[/quote] OP Here! Thanks for the question! Essentially they let me know what activities they wanted to get into, specifically DD who is 7yo. Her dance/ballet classes she wanted directly conflicted with the days my son's travel team practiced. I thought about leaving my son at practice early, he is 15yo btw, but the two locations were about 10 mi apart so I would spend 3 of 5 weekdays traveling back and forth after work, hoping I didn't crash and nothing happened to my oldest at practice. I chose not to have that headache and my 7yo DD is currently doing rec soccer at the same club my oldest plays at.[/quote] You've changed your DDs age by two years. And I cannot roll my eyes hard enough at "hoping I didn't crash." But whatever, go ahead and sink your relationship with what I sincerely hope is your imaginary son. [/quote]
