[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 571241, member: 6546"] Getting back a bit on topic - I think some of the strictness in sports and school activities has to do with money. There are SO MANY kids who deserve to be on the team, get a shot at the scholarship - but there just isn't space or funding for them all. When there are several candidates who are equally qualified, but only one space - teachers, coaches, scouts - have to make tough decisions. And for those who don't make the cut - that's it. This is why we expect exemplary behavior from those on the team. It's a priviledge to be on the team. If one cannot handle the responsibilities, there are a dozen others waiting in the wings to take their spot. [/QUOTE]
