[quote=Anonymous][quote]My vote is it's because the crazy parents push soccer too hard too fast too much. Kids at age 9 and 10 are practicing two times sometimes three per week, and traveling every weekend. They just want to hang out with her friends...[/quote] My kid asked to do travel soccer. It is a big pain in the neck for DH and I, and we'd rather not. DS is certainly good at soccer, but not exceptional. He will probably continue to play for fun for the rest of his life because he likes it, but I doubt he will play on a serious basis kind after high school. His friends are on his team, so playing soccer is hanging out with his friends.[/quote]
