Dear Coaches, What Exactly Do You Want Us Parents to Do - Part 2?

This episode is not about offering solutions. Nope — it’s a full-on rant inspired by the tidal wave of advice, contradictions, and guilt trips parents get from every corner of the youth soccer world.We’re told:Don’t train your kid too early — unless you do.Winning doesn’t matter — but your team better be in a competitive league.Clubs don’t develop players — but also, stop moving clubs.Be hands-on — but don’t be that parent.Tryouts are scams — but pick the perfect team in 48 hours.So today, I’m asking one question: What do you actually want from us?If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning in expert opinions but starving for actual clarity — this one’s for you.Let’s get better (or at least stay sane) together.— NeilP.S.
