The unfortunate side of TB. Im sure we have all experienced it at some point and to some degree. Ill spare everyone the details but it comes down to this...having the best intentions and a decent moral compass only sets you up to be burned. Wanting to provide a quality environment, instruction, and atmosphere for the girls gets a little less important to some parents when there are others out there waving shiny hardware filled promises around. The amount of underhandedness, back channeling, and otherwise shady behavior has become astounding. When did winning become more important than all else? When did going back on your word become the norm? When did every parent start to believe that their kid at 10, 11, 12 years old was destined for a full ride and a starting position to a top 5 school? I completely understand wanting the best for your child, but how about a little reality check from time to time? Last year, a coach told me “TB is full of liars and thieves.” I didn’t pay it much mind at the time but now that I have become much more involved in the inner workings…unfortunately, he was right. Sorry for the rant
