Concur, delusional parents kill all travel sports. They can't handle their "Little Johnny" is not going to make it to the show!
I feel sorry for those parents! Luckily my kid is really, really, REALLY good and I won't have to go through that! Our Mite A skating coach says he has D1/Long NHL career written all over him and our stick handling coach says he's way better than he was at that age and our shooting coach says he has the technique of Matthews/Bedard! All we have to do is stick with the routine and get our 10,000 hours in with each to be next level! We're already halfway there! My wife and I see all these delusional parents out here not putting the work in and it's sad. I tell them, my boy is going to be wiping the smiles right off their faces!
Being a parent this a blessing for you guys.
Keep it up and a very good luck to your son!
