There are a lot of people that would rather not join a group that is going to make them pee in a bottle, even if they have nothing to worry about.<


These points are certainly valid, and I tend to be of a libertarian mind that in many areas the less government intrusion the better. However, these same teens will probably have to pee in a bottle in order to work at the local fast food joint.

I have a close family member who stepped back from the brink with alcohol in her thirties and a godson whose mom worries about losing him every day. As a mom of a 9-year-old who is passionate about football, I do believe that his engagement in academic and athletic pursuits will help him get through his teens. However, you bet I will want the support of the school and coaches if his grades slide or he gets into any type of illegal activities. I think when coaches pressure teachers to let the kid play anyway or make excuses because they want to win it does great damage to the youth involved. I think it is best if this support is kept at a personal level rather than coercive, though.
