[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's funny to see that some posters here are skeptical that some kids really do drive the train in terms of not wanting to miss a single meet or practice. I was that kid. I even made my parents drive me to meets in another state twice just so I could swim a single time trial for one event where I was close to a cut. The trials were at the end of the evening after all the finals heats had ended. Missed the cut by .03 the first time, made it the second time. My parents thought I was crazy, and I probably was... adolescent hormones and all. But it meant everything to me at the time.[/quote] If you are not wired that way or have a kid wired that way it is hard to believe. It really is a form of crazy (I have a crazy kid for swim). It took a long time for people to realize I was not pushing my kid and sometimes trying to rein them in.[/quote]
