[quote=Anonymous]DS starts on his school basketball team. Recently he missed the first practice he's missed all season because he was sick. He went to the doctor and was explicitly told not to go to practice. The next day (when he was much better due to the magic of antibiotics), coach benched him for half a game, which they lost by like 2 points despite DS having a monster half. I'm sure coach still thinks he did the right thing. Some coaches are like that. I get people thinking that the wedding is more important, but DS has been practicing basketball every day since he was in 4th grade with the goal of playing HS ball. He would not miss a tournament if it would wreck his chances to do what he worked so many years for. You can say that they are kids and that this is not that important, but DS basketball career has already lasted longer than many marriages, and he's certainly worked harder at it than many people work on their marriages.[/quote]
