[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are SO MANY other things besides sports, and yes, most kids find interests and hobbies that they enjoy and are good at even if they aren't sports. All of the performing and visual arts, design, languages, food and cooking, arts and crafts, nature, writing (journalism, creative writing), volunteering and community involvement, leadership roles at school or in the community, entrepreneurship, etc., etc., etc. We are so weird in this country about sports. [/quote] DCUM parents are insane about sports. They’ve convinced themselves that you can’t learn to work together with others or develop “grit”without organized sports, and they’ve also convinced themselves that the only options are organized sports or being 350 pounds sitting on the sofa stuffing Oreos in your face all day. In total nonsense, of course. Guess they have to tell themselves something to justify the ridiculous “travel” sport fees. :lol: [/quote]
