Mommy Talk & Daddy Dialogue ™

I have worked in athletics for over 15 years in a supportive capacity
and have seen this over and over again. And now I am experiencing it
with own son who is on the 9th grade football team with 60 otehr boys.
He gets frustrated with not getting playing time, I encourage HIM to
talk directly to the coach about it if bothered him that much. He
never had that conversation. So, he has accepted his spot on the team
and enjoys the "team bonding" On a side note, let's face it....on ALL
levels, coaches want to WIN and it's rare that a coach will be
considerate of the kid who does everyting he is asked to do when they
are winning or losing by a significant amount. It's just teh way it is
and kids have to understand it on the front end. However, it does not
make it any easier to sit and watch.

wow sounds way to familiar for me! i have 4 children all were in
basketball from elementary thru high school.my oldest a very assertive
boy played all the time,my middle one loved to play it was his life
and just wanted to play when it came to high school he quit because he
was on the bench and he couldn't do it,he was great but the coach
really clashed with his personality,they do have favorites.then my
youngest daughter she played every game and was also an excellent
player,but her senior year the coach was replaced and she never played
again,cried everyday,tried being real sweet to the coach,but her niece
didn't like my daughter so she never played by the next season my
daughter quit,it was very sad for all of us,but these things happen in
school all the time,there is parshiality shown all the time especially
in sports,but please don't let this discourage you or your son.sports
is still the best thing for children,it teaches them disapline,how to
be assurtive,work as a team player,take turns?,how to exercise and
take care of their bodies,keeping there minds occupied on good healthy
things instead of the boring road of nothing to do lets get mixed up
in the wrong crowd.you don't want that,let your son make up his own
mind if he wants to quit or not don;t make that decision for him.if he
went to tryout again he'll be fine if they don't pick him to play he
sounds more patient then you might think and stronger.parents feel
worse then they do.they are still a whole team and getting recognition
of that too,this may be enough for your patient son.good luck.

It's called "Mommy Talk & Daddy Dialogue [sic]," but then everything
else is clear that it's "Moms" only.

Short of breast feeding items, that is.
