[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We know a husband and wife whose youngest is off to college this fall. He will not play college sports. This couple's entire and I mean entire identity for the past like fifteen years has been carting their kids to practices, training, camps, and out of town tournaments. Every waking moment it seems. They're only in their late 40s. Do travel sports couples like this struggle with their departure from that sporty orbit and all of their newfound free time?[/quote] What's it to you? Why the judgment? We have lots of things we are looking forward to doing when it's over in another year . . . though mine will likely be playing in college (TBD where but we'll know soon enough). We "carted our kid to practices" and so forth b/c she loved it, not because we did. It taught her a lot, kept her fit, kept her out of trouble. And I'd do it again in a heartbeat. [/quote]
