I have never understood this mindset where Johnny playing sports is a higher priority than survival or financial prudence.
Unless your kid is being scouted right now by coaches from D1 school, this is all laughably irresponsible. I have a few friends like this whose kids play lacrosse and they even admit their kids don't have a hope for scholarship or to be recruited but they still burn all the money and time. It's like a cult.
