[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s hear about the other crazy things, please share[/quote]

Parents complaining about tech suits and knesskins.  Just relax and let the swimmer do their thing within the rules.  Don't stress about whether records were broken in the days of mustaches, paper suits, or tech suits.  It will be ok.  Kids shattering records in NVSL aren't doing so because of a suit--they are doing it because of training, nutrition, a good night's sleep, good mental headspace, and a good dose of talent.

If you see a kid in a kneeskin just cheer them on.  No need for judgment about why you think they are wearing it or what their parents must be thinking, or whether it is fair or not based on speed or income. Just relax and cheer the kids on.  [/quote]

This thread is about the craziness of some swim parents during the summer. Having your kid "suited up" outside of the relay carnival meets falls in that catagory.[/quote]

A parent worried or complaining about a kid wearing a kneeskin outside of some set period that fits their own personal criteria is what is crazy.[/quote]

I'll go one farther.  Any parent talking about a swimsuit of a 12 year old kid who isn't their kid is out of line.  [/quote]

Nice try, tech suit mom. Ban all kneeskins without a modesty waiver.[/quote]

Kneeskins for summer swim is a joke.  You are making your kid look dumb[/quote]
