[quote=Anonymous][quote]That's actually what I figured. Parents are encouraging their 3rd graders to play travel soccer so they can get into a good college in 10 years. That's screwed up to me. [/quote] Eh, I guess it depends on how you look at it. My kid does soccer, but he's pretty mediocre, so we're not doing it so that he can get into college, just for exercise. He's really good at math, though, and loves it, we do additional tutoring twice a week to keep him sharp and working ahead, because math is probably going to be what gets him into a good college. But if soccer was someone else's strength, why not focus on that, if the kid likes it and it may be a possible future advantage? [/quote]
