Okay so my son and daughter (both middle schoolers) are very active in sports. My daughter broke 2 bones in her foot doing competitive gymnastics in December. She was also hurt last competitive season. Gymnastics is really expensive and the hubby and I were lamenting paying an obscene amount of money all year for a sport she has been unable to compete in for 2 years due to injuries. SOOOOO I most certainly did not set up an appointment and interview with the local swim team, and I would never speak with the local dive team coach to see what her options were. As a supportive mom, I would never suggest maybe she try a different sport after 8 years and $50,000 later!!! No I would never do that based on money, and fear for her health. No NOT ME.
On top of that I would never allow my son to stay over a friends house on Friday night after the ski trip. Even though he had texted me and said he thought he broke his finger.... I would never brush off the text and allow him an overnight, thus putting the burden on another mom. No NOT ME!!! And I would never call his basketball coach at the last minute and inform him of the said broken finger that was now in a cast!! No I would never procrastinate so long, NOT ME.
And finally for all you out there who suffer from any disease of any type, I would never purposefully delay taking my meds so that the meds were at their peak performance while taking my daughter to her first swim team practice. Why you ask, I am deathly allergic to chlorine!! Nope not me, I would never put myself in jeopardy for my kids, surely I wouldn't do that.... NOT ME!!
