[quote=Anonymous]I debated through high school and college (not policy) one level out from the national competitive level (I was good, but not at that level, we could win/place at a regional ). It was intense, yes, and I greatly appreciated the community and the research skills it gave me. I did marry a debater, and we still have a community of alums 20+ years later. That said, it definitely affected my choices in college (I either missed or eventually did not take classes Friday, took away from my weekend work, etc.). If your kid is committed, let them do it.[/quote]
