    remember college isn't for most of your kids. Trade school or community college is the right thing- sadly most of you don't know it.

      This is right. The kids who do well in school and are pretty bright don't need to worry as much. They'll still be eligible for merit aid and can apply for other scholarships. Who knows, maybe being an older student will be considered a plus if universities want to diversify the student population. True though, those kids who aren't strong students really have to give extra thought to giving up a scholarship. They actually might get a better education waiting until after their soccer career is over, as they'll be more focused on what they actually want to do for the rest of their lives vs. majoring in communications or sports sciences in order to juggle studies with college soccer. The college name on their diploma may not open as many doors for them, but they may be better equipped to handle the working world.

          We want a better life for our kid than ours, if pro soccer is part of that it would be great.

                At least they won't have that long bus ride home to savor the losses.
