[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am trying to figure out if I am being sensitive or if some parents of dc's former teammates are being uber competitive.  They aren't being forthcoming about what their dc's are doing in regards to the sport and seem reluctant to share with me information about where they are playing, what extra training they may be doing, etc.  To be honest, I am not certain if it is competitiveness or jealousy at this point.  Why wouldn't people want to share what they are doing or get weird if I try to get my dc involved too?  [/quote]

You mean you've explicitly asked them and they won't tell you or that you know they are doing something but they are being sneaky about it and not revealing everything they are doing? B is common, A is less common and very weird. A weird parent at DC's school organized extra training for the kids she thought had "talent" and left everyone else out. When people would ask the parents in the training what they were doing on Wednesdays they would hedge. Finally someone admitted to a few people what happened and how certain kids were hand-picked by weird mom and they didn't want everyone else to feel left out. Yes, OP, it's weird. A lot of parents rolled their eyes at this lady.
