[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just told my A meet summer swimming only 10 year old and she was sad but not surprised. I hope these tough conversations go well for others too. Kids are showing remarkable resilience in the face of sadness.[/quote]

This is a weird response.  What difference does it make if she's an A meet swimmer.  Nobody cares.[/quote]

The parent cares. A meet/ B meet hierarchy is important. [/quote]

If her non year round swimmer goes to a meets, she’ll likely go every year bc of the type of team she has or the team’s age group makeup.  The child also doesn’t swim year round. That means that it could easily not be that big of a deal to a child like this. A child who loves swimming, swims year round, would be at the top of his/her age group this year, loves summer swim friends, has a good shot at all stars, etc would be more upset. So saying that information about her kid tells the reader to take her kid’s reaction with a grain of salt.

I'm still not following.  The PP seemed to go out of her way to bring up that her DD was an A swimmer like anyone on this board really cared.  All we wanted was summer swim to take place...no one on this board cares about this one child who swims A meets.  That's not why we're all here.  [/quote]
