[quote=Anonymous]OP, I bet you are undervaluing how much calmer and better a parent you likely were by having some space in your schedule. Things would not have been the same with crazy logistics. That's not to say some families shouldn't do travel sports and all the things, but if you thought then it would have had a negative impact, you were probably correct and who they have become was partially shaped by the more attentive mom, the downtime, freedom to choose some of what they did, etc. You can't ignore those impacts. Being on the baseball team or whatever may have had some benefits, but it also would have had a cost that you knew at the time and may have lost sight of now.[/quote]
