Only whites get sympathy. If you are Asian you are being pushed by parents. In this country if you join travel sports and keep playing sports, that is fine. I know so many parents who themselves were athletes and push their kids even if the kids are not interested. However, no one says anything about those kids. I live close to Darien, CT and there are dads always practicing sports like lacrosse (which we all know is played mainly in rich white suburbs for college admissions) with kids but those dads are seen as being involved. If this kids dad is at Google and is nurturing his son's love for technology, what is wrong? So many double standards. But these double standards will only make Asian kids stronger, they know they have to be much better to be considered equals. [/quote]

Um, if you're on DCUM, whites get no sympathy. "lol try harder loser, you'll do fine if you don't get into Harvard" is the attitude.

Incidentally, most kids play lacrosse [i]because they actually like it[/i], not for college admissions. [/quote]

Lacrosse IS fun
