Further Things That Are Wrong (Part 2)

I would have thought multiple training sessions over a weekend is very normal for most kids? Most lads are playing their own age group and on a weaker grade the age above them and thatā€™s just one sport.

Not for most kids, Iā€™d say not. Itā€™s the parents who decide to push them in some kind of one upmanship thing. Itā€™s a bit odd imho.

In ireland Iā€™d say thatā€™s very normal for most kidsā€¦we were doing it back in the 80s when parents didnā€™t give a fuck what you were at.

Too many parents self worth is now invested in their kids sporting prowess

FFS we used to spend hours playing football in the summer until it got dark. @flattythehurdler doesnā€™t think a few fiachras can take a couple of 50 minute sessions over a weekend.No wonder young lads are gone soft.

Some kids live sports, others hate it.
Most kids love competition, in many cases itā€™s what brings them back every week, we try to encourage them not to worry about the score, a massive waste of time.

Thereā€™s fuck all better that they can be doing, good physical exercise with their mates, you canā€™t have too much of it

My missus says my youngest girl trains too often for basketball, sheā€™s u12, u13 and u14, she never wants to miss it,

Christ when I think back to what we did as kids, sheā€™s in the hapenny place

Actually, children can have too much of it.

Maybe, I do t think it did me any harm.

Kids are all different, I donā€™t think two hours of moderate exercise is too much for most.

7 quid for a bag of hunky doryā€™s IIRC

Moxy has Briodys on its doorstep. I know a man in there who got swept into the hotel by a yank milf and was torn asunder.

Went for a bit of dinner last night for the wifeā€™s birthday. There was a party of about 20 at another table. Your man was about the same age as myself. Left the cap on the whole way through the dinner. I was actually on the verge of seething

Not a hope. Standards are slipping in this country with the younger bucks.
