Louy, there is a right way and a wrong way for responding to straight forward questions, and there is nothing constructive and positive about your responses to me. I see nothing valid in commenting that I am putting pressure on my son and too involved in a game he loves to play. It would be very helpful to answer questions directly, i.e, 10 is a good age, or 10 is not a good age, etc., without the personal comments.

First you say the basement equipment is "too much", now you say you think it's great my son has the income for this....he's 10.....and now you're commenting about if my husband "were there". I don't know what your implying with your comments, but my income and my husband's whereabouts are not your concern. I don't know what type of 10 year olds you coached, but where I live, the boys practice to improve and have fun doing it.

You should have stopped with your first response.
