[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I have one DC who was recruited as a D1 athlete (Ivy). I am the sister of one recruited D1 athlete and another one season major league athlete. I am the daughter of an Olympian. Know your kid. Know the competitors. Be realistic. I have another kid who did not stand a chance in the real top tier world of sports. I have seen way too many parents pushing enthusiastic but marginal athletes who think that their kids' passion will overcome poor performance. The athletes in my family were outstanding from the time they hit the playing field. If you are not an outlier, then enjoy the sport as recreation. [/quote] There are plenty of examples of stars who were absolutely not stars as kids. [/quote]
