[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he was truly competitive in soccer he would be playing Academy and couldn't play HS anyhow. So why bother with school soccer? I don't understand why you care. [/quote]

OP again. You don't understand why I think my son would benefit from a positive connection with his new school?[/quote]

Does the positive connection have to be soccer?[/quote]

OP again- it's the most logical one. And he's already being recruited by colleges and universities so it would be beneficial to stay in that realm.

I will add- lots of you must have abject failures for kids. Insisting your child stay disciplined in something he excels at is a positive, not a negative. But, something tells me your kids are fat and sitting on a play station in the basement.[/quote]

Im the PP at 8:14. My DC1 graduated near the top of his high school class, was nominated for a state award for his volunteer work and was president of a high school student club, participated in this same club activity on a nationally ranked team in college, and graduated from college last year summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa. My DC2 has excellent grades and plays both on a high school and a travel sport team.

So having established my bonafides, let me just add one more thought and then I'm done with this thread. You're a jerk, OP.[/quote]
