[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First grade?  So we’re talking a 6 or 7 year old?

Right now it’s not an even a question of specialization or “dropping” a sport… just stop having him do so much right now!   [/quote]

Again, these are all rec programs. Just seems to be a higher commitment than other areas. [/quote]

You know you don’t actually HAVE to do even rec teams yet for kids this young, right?  And even if there are 3 practices per week you don’t actually HAVE to go to all of them?

There’s no magical “higher commitment” in your area.  You’re apparently surrounded by people who have no perspective and you’re happy to follow the herd.  You do you, mom, but this is ultimately just a choice you’re making.[/quote]

Yes but my kids enjoy it and I believe in committing to the practices and games we sign up for and not checking in and checking out based on our mood. Sure we miss from time to time but we try to make them. It’s a team sport after all and that’s one of the big lessons of team sports. Sorry you don’t agree. You do you. [/quote]

You are ridiculous and basic [/quote]
