For #6 there would be a #4 needed......
For #6 there would be a #4 needed......
It should not be an issue for that one day and I would expect her to tell the coach and also expect to sit part of Sunday. It's a choice she will need to make. Life's full of them, all learning ones.....
Send the dd with the team and you take your wife out for her b-day, dont see how a parental b-day is a reason for a kid to miss a softball game? Am I missing something here?
I think it literally depends on the dd. I have the tale of 2 worlds.
My oldest, if she played traver, believes that homecoming, prom, etc is important and softball isn't. I'd support her in her decision. I don't have to worry about the doghouse for those events :yahoo:. HOWEVER, if a Justin Beaver concert, all bets are off. Normally most coaches get the schedule out before that announcement when his coming to the area. However, I would contact the coach concerning the schedule, if by chance, the announcement for the concert is first.
My youngest on the other hand lives, breathes, and eats softball. All bets are off. I'm sacrificing to get her the lessons needed to help her achieve her dreams, she's going to sacrifice as well. That's what the "off-season" is for.
I would not even know how to answer this question. Yes I do. NO to the concert. Yes to every thing dealing with dances and school. I would try and get the coach to not schedule a tourny that weekend if he/she could do it for the concert (prior to buying tickets) I would say at the younger age it would hurt more saying no. I would just hope she would make her own choices about commitment later in life that would help her understand once you make a commitment you need to do ever thing to honor it.
This is a question I always had.... Why is it more important to have Mother's Day weekend off but the same respect is not paid during Father's Day weekend?
Sounds sexist to me :lmao:
Most dads I know would rather be watching their dd play on Father's Day. And winning would be the best Father's Day gift.
