Working, trying to educate the ill-prepared. After reading your posts it only reinforces the fact that America still has a long way to go if we want to catch up with Estonia. There's no sense arguing with a brick wall, much less one built by an ignorant mason.

For what it's worth, my daughter plays high level club, odp, high school ball and is in the top ten in her class. Ever since she scored 20 goals in a mighty mite game when she was 5, we've been pushing and encouraging. The tons of money we've spent has been worth all the family vacations spent on her soccer development. Now, in her Jr. year, her priority this weekend was getting done with her VC games so she could get to her hostess job at the local restaurant. Having looked at the number of our young girls who do get money for college ball and then, 1 in 3 maybe 1 in 4 even play all four years, what is the priority? I see the merits of club and school, but the only people asking and demanding money at every turn are the clubs. My daughter has turned down 4 D-1 offers and will go to a top notch university to "just" be a student. And I applaud her.

If I were only so lucky to be 1. over-paid and 2. teach Driver's Ed. I look forward to that time. What do you do for a living? It's not conjugating sentences I hope.
