[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Why would we reconsider? DC is smart. Got in with no big effort and certainly no prep classes or prep tests. Maybe your kids need to reconsider if they need year round school to keep up. [/quote] I do not follow your logic. Should we stop year-round soccer based on your reasoning (...or lack thereof). I hope your kids didn't inherit their intelligence from you but were fortunate for a mutation in the appropriate piece of DNA.[/quote] Yes, your kid probably should stop playing year-round soccer. It's damaging to them physically and shows the same insane forced-upon drive from their parents that year round school shows. From the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons: "Do not allow your child to play one sport year round - taking regular breaks and playing other sports is essential to skill development and injury prevention." http://orthoinfo.aaos.org/topic.cfm?topic=A00307 [/quote]
