If you want to be so arrogant, what’s a true athlete? Plenty of serious athletes who played sports from a young age don’t even make one JV high school team
NP, but there is nothing arrogant about what PP said. There are true athletes just like there are true geniuses. It’s not disrespectful to acknowledge this - it’s just reality.
Sucks to be neither
Come one. To be born healthy, into one of the wealthiest counties of the wealthiest country in the world is doing pretty good. The world isn't over if a kid isn't a star athlete or top student. They still have more opportunity than the vast majority of the world. Comparison is the thief of joy and all that.
That’s a ridiculous thing to say when America has the least happiest people out of any country
That is a ridiculous thing to say when absolutely no one reading this forum would trade places with the person on this planet with the 50th percentile "best" quality of life. Your 'America bad' schtick is laughable.

your point is that you want to brag about having athletic kids

A true athlete is the one who makes the JV team.

How practice time is used also plays into this. Have watched plenty of youth practices and sports events. Some young athletes max out their practice time to get better. Some are not using that time as effectively.
