[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question says it all. Unless your kid is truly scholarship material, I seriously don't understand why you'd let your kid play sports when they are bringing in low Bs. I know colleges like sports because the student seems more well-rounded, but that's stupid if it comes at the expense of grades. [/quote] Only star athletes and straight a students should do sports? OK. :shock: I don't plan to join your world. There is more to life. And for most kids, spending more time academics at home does not change their grades, but getting no exercise and having no life out side of academics ... well that's no life for a child and I'm pretty sure it would torpedo a lot of kids' grades due to the depression and anxiety it would cause.[/quote]
