[quote=Anonymous]This is the sports forum but my kid does community theater and we agree upfront very clearly that the kid won't miss any rehearsals (let alone a performance). You have to submit dates you will miss prior to even auditioning. A team sport is the same if you're doing it at a higher level. The group is counting on you and upfront you are told it needs to be your first priority. You can question whether parents should allow kids to pursue these activities. But once they're in, they're in. I tell my kids you need to finish the commitment you made once you've made it. But once the show or season is over, fine to prioritize other things.[/quote]
