[quote=Anonymous]I’m not an athlete but just want to chime in that I’m watching the Olympic trials to see someone from our town swim. S/he didn’t start swimming competitively until high school and had spent the prior years doing all sorts of other sports. Obviously, this person is extremely talented but there is no one path. Plus, agree with all the others to relax about test scores etc. Grades don’t count when you are 7. This is the time to learn how to fail, how to make mistakes, how to ask questions. This is the time to learn that it is okay not to be perfect - be no one ever is.[/quote]
