[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I am willing to do my volunteer share if I can. I have been doing the group snack/drink volunteer for soccer/basketball team for years. It is just a trip to Costco to buy bulk. I have talked to my son, and he is really scared of joining summer swim team. He is scared of getting eliminated at tryouts and he does not really want to swim laps after day camps in summer. He wants to watch screentime after day camps or after school. I have tried to use bribe, but he begs me not to take him to tryout this week. I will ask him again next year summer. [/quote] You are making the right call. Definitely don’t force him. I would, however, have him take the diving board test, just to make sure he can tread water in an emergency and get himself safely to shore/edge of pool. That should be non-negotiable. (Child drowned in a person’s pool in Fairfax over the last week.)[/quote]
