Divorce: Sports-Parenting Leadership

It doesn't matter how good the product or service is if the leadership at the top sucks (see Enron; Penn State....Canada.)

This is something for divorced sports parents to keep in mind if they constantly butt heads over youth sports issues - which sports to play, how much to spend on camps and personal coaches, how much family time to invest, how serious to take sports, etc.

If your student-athlete has talent and more importantly a passion for playing sports, and a solid group of coaches in place....take stock on how you and the ex are handling the sports-parenting role.  Is your contribution an asset or a detriment?
