[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So only the top 1%-10% families can even have kids competing in some of these expensive sports? I would never say the child getting private skating lessons and training isn’t good at figure skating, but there can only be so many kids even wealthy enough to compete—and those that are, how much is it about natural talent and how much is it about the amount of money parents are willing to throw at a sport?[/quote] If it gets them into a D1 college with $$$ it is both, nobody is playing in college without serious athletic talent. If it is to get them into a highly academic college, you need money and be pretty good at sports. It's not fair, plain and simple. [/quote]
