[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I used to think like you until my kid upped their commitment to their sport at 11, joining the travel baseball life. It is what he lives and breathes. Conveniently, all of his middle school friends also participate on travel teams, so everyone understands the limitations that come with it. He still goes to birthday parties, social events, etc; it's just that practices/games/tournaments come first. I can see that if the friend group is part travel team kids and part rec team kids, that could be confusing for those not living the life. But my kid loves it and wouldn't trade it for anything. Such is life.[/quote] No you love it. Your kid does not know any thing else.[/quote] Not PP but I am not a sports person. My kids are. There are other things they love, too, but the parents are definitely not pushing the sports thing in our house. It all started because they asked for it.[/quote]
