[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Play multiple sports and cross train. Your DD can handle a busy schedule [/quote]

Does their school grades and activities suffer from this?[/quote]

Nope, in fact, they're better students from it because they've learned how to prioritze, focus, and adapt. DD is in multiple honors classes. Teach them to be brave and try new things. Do it early because after a certain age, you won't be able to get them to try a new sport or activity. [/quote]

At a higher level, you may have to make a choice. One of our DA players asked to miss two practices due to a final exam and the coaches said "fine, good luck". But when the game came that weekend they benched her and said "next time show up for practice". We've met a few other DA parents who have moved schools to get "less intense academics" so they have enough time for soccer. [/quote]

Poor club environment.  My DD maintains a 4.2 with AP classes in the mix, while still being a starter.[/quote]
