[quote=Anonymous]Look, I think every parent at some point has some feelings of insecurity or can be judgy in either direction. I think there are parents who definitely brag and those who are more humble. This area is filled with type A parents who all share the same goal of wanting the best for their kids and would do anything to get them an edge/advantage or on a solid footing to succeed. As kids succeed together, friend groups form based on travel, bleacher time and time volunteering on deck. My best advice is, cheer for your kid, tell them how much you like to watch them swim. Cheer for your kids friends as well. Enjoy the ride, this crazy train of meets is over before you know it. Your kid may be a future D1, USA swimming athlete or just happy to be swimming on the HS team. Enjoy the ride and try to not get caught up in the game of what your neighbor is doing[/quote]
