[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because it gives some parents a social life. Because parents can't stand against the wall in the classroom and cheer their kid on through a test. Becuase no one will notice your new boots or stadium coat when Junior's report card shows up in your mailbox. Because the amount of time they spend with traveling and scheduling makes them feel like they are doing something important for their kid.[/quote] This. Plus bragging rights about whatever weekend travel they are doing because their child is so great at their sport.[/quote] Not. That is like 1% of folk involved in sports. Like the same 1% abnoxious about anything....[/quote] Not at our school. More like 25% of the parents with kids in travel.[/quote]
