My DD has some big goals. I’ve been perusing this forum and gaining a ton of advice and insight-so thank you to the people who share their knowledge and experiences as we navigate this game and community.
As she enters HS after this summer, I didn’t think it was too early to start finding paths to reach her goals. I don’t think it necessary to say if a goal seems out of reach. I try to contextualize everything and be honest.
DD wants to go D1 and talking law school. We know kids change their minds every ten minutes about the foods and clothes and music they like, but she’s been on this mindset for a bit now.
We have driven home the idea that her goals will not fall into her lap-it’s gonna be a battle uphill and she’s gonna have to put in a lot of work and personal development.
For the moment, she’s going for it. I’m excited and nervous for her, but we are gonna be here for it cheering the whole time.
But again, a thank you to the regular posters who have either - made this journey or their kids have-share their stories. I hope I can join in along with you all at some point
