[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sports parents are out in public, you have no idea how crazy academic parents are behind closed doors. I am voting for academic because there are more hours spent on that and it is constant, sports are an hour a week or two at games [/quote] +1 The academic parents who are crazy (which is not the same as parents who care a lot about academics), are on their kids every single day about virtually every single grade. My daughter has some friends in this category, and I feel so sorry for them. When people talk about crazy sports parents, they mostly mean the blowhards who mouth off once or twice a week in season--those people may be perfectly supportive of their kids. There are parent who ride their kids about constantly improving in their sport, and I think those folks do the same kind of damage as obsessive academic parents.[/quote]
