We put our kids in these pressure cookers on these teams and set these expectations. Look at these tight games. Kids don't see the field, shorting the bench to win, fine. But kids don't even see the field in a youth lacrosse game. They are too young to carry this weight and it will boil.over. And this is teaching the wrong life lessons in my opinion, and it's why everyone sits white knuckled watching and two men going back and forth on twitter. This all starts with us parents and the choices we (collectively) make.

A lot of you will look back and it will change your perspective one day.
