[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This from the article ….. It’s acceptable to be less talented in sports than your peers. Most kids are OK with it- the parents can’t accept their kid isn’t as good as the neighbor's kid. It grinds on them. So what do they do? They push their kid to be something they are not, and most likely something they don’t want to be. This is true but the worst parents are the ones who complain the lowest level players are bringing their child down. In elementary school! [/quote] Our parochial school has a no-cut team and I had this conversation before the start: Me: I heard Larlo is on a travel team. He must be really good! Other mom: they let anyone on that team who is willing to pay. Some of those kids are so awful they shouldn't even be there. They're bringing the whole team down. Me: well, my kid's never even played this before. I'm just happy he's getting exercise. Very awkward.[/quote]
