[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is weird. My son has played sports since K. Both travel and rec. He has always worked hard. In some sports he’s been a natural and in others a bench warmer but he always gave his all. These days he’s down to one sport and hoping to play college but that remains to be seen. I’ve never heard a parent in all these years brag that their kid didn’t practice. It’s often more of a competition as to who is doing more. When parents do mention kids not practicing, it’s expressing frustration that they’re child isn’t motivated. [/quote]

PP we've encountered parents along the way who talk about their kids not practicing outside of organized team training, and I think that's largely because the parent is clueless or annoyed with their kid. That said, we've had far more parents talking about how much their DC is doing in addition to team training. It's like an insane d&#k measuring contest and I hate it. DS is now 14 and you can feel the parental anxiety about making HS teams. [/quote]
