Can anyone actually give a reasonable reason/advantage why its a good idea to have a 12-13 year old commit 9 years of their life .I must honestly be missing something. I have read the above posts and have yet to see a reasonable explanation as to why its a good idea. I get its a great school but it will be just as great in 3 years.
Its easy to sit here and judge a kid and family for making the decision but until you have those offers on the table...why not just say Congrats and hope it works out for her. Its easy to identify the negatives to early recruiting, but there can be positives for each girl/ boy that only apply to that individual.
