[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most stresses for Parents in Youth Soccer are Self Induced. Mainly stemming from trying to use the sport/their kid to fill other personal needs.

Most stresses are from things not being MERIT-BASED.

Not at all.  Watching politics and roster changes AFTER teams are selected to pacify a donor or 'long-suffering manager' teaches the kid effort and results don't matter.

I'm the first one to say another kid is better than one of my own and to tell them 'look if you want to play that position you have to be better than Timmy.  Currently, you are not.  Here are some of the things you can work on.  If you don't want to put in the work, stop complaining'.[/quote]

I agree with you on that. The inability for parents  to let their kids try and fail is what creates adults not equipped for the real world. Parents who have “high levels of education” are typically the worst for this.
