[quote=Anonymous]So much assuming going on. Not everyone who makes a HS team has worked hard since age 5 and the OP gave zero info from her sister that suggested this was anything beyond a normal tournament (normal games could be important to them) or that the coach would act any certain way or have any position on it or that there would be a drastic negative impact. Some of you guys are conveniently setting up a false comparison: wedding or crushing the kid's efforts and sports future. I think that goes to the warped headspace many of sports parents have these days. Step back and gain some perspective. If everyone shuts up and assumes or goes along, no wonder the craziness of kid sports perpetuates. Everyone is so scared of a kid not "making it" for an activity that will end after HS.[/quote]
