and when that glorious day comes, the day he/she says yes to a great d1 school, and a chance to leave college with little or no student debt, rejoice and enjoy....because 6 months later he/she might say, Dad, I just don't want it, its not what I want to do for the next 4 years, sorry but no more....then you will know that pain....endlessly scouring your memories for when the moment switched, good luck....

Ok. They grow up and leave things from childhood behind for new pursuits. Sounds normal to me. The opposite would be more concerning....if they never grew and developed other interests

And then families won't waste so much time and money on fancy soccer if the player wants other employment in college.

Question to you though - is that he/she is burned out on soccer in general, or is it the program and/or school combined with a touch of burnout?

Originally posted by Unregistered View Postwhile we can appreciate your plight, this is why families shouldn't be so dependent on athletics to pay for college. Sh*t can and does happen. First you have to win the scholarship - a task with low odds to begin with - then you have to keep it. We made it very clear to our kids when they started HS that we can pay X for each of them and the rest is up to them via scholarships (athletic and academic), work and loans. It helped them plan accordingly.
