[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I look at high school athletics from the perspective that it keeps them BUSY. No time for playing endless video games or getting into trouble. Often, a busy athlete is a better student because they learn to organize their academic life. Bonus: they stay in shape too. Think positive OP.[/quote] It's funny that this is so many people's attitudes. I was not a busy kid (teen). But, I also wasn't a trouble maker or a couch potato.[/quote] I agree...this is a newish concept that you need to keep the kids "busy", and that the only option is video games or drugs. god forbid kids have time to read, chill, be creative etc. It's easier to parent with set schedules with sports set by other people. Been there done that, and we had to fight hard against people saying "but you HAVE to do travel or HS sports". No, you don't. [/quote] Thank you for posting this. Not many people agree with me.[/quote]
