[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, it sounds like you need to find the right supports to "get it together" more.  Whether that's carpools or better calendar management (or something else), this will be a problem at any club that you go to if your attendance is going to be so hit-or-miss as to impact your kids' training or the experiences of other swimmers on the team.

It's swim. Her kids' attendance impacts her kids. There is no team to impact [/quote]

Absolutely not true. Some examples:

- A kid showing up late to practice disrupts the practice as the other kids are distracted as is the coach who has to stop practice to catch the kid up on the workout instructions
- on a very competitive team that’s hard to get into, a kid who never comes to practice is taking the spot of another kid who would love to have that opportunity 
- parents who never volunteer at meets put more burden on the coaches to repeatedly beg for volunteers 
- kids who sign up for meets and don’t show waste the coach’s time and the admin’s time
