Yes, I'd fully support their dream, whatever it isYep, that would be the perfect teaching opportunity, let them know it's okay to dream big but don't forget to have a backup plan..... Just as long as he comes up with this at an appropriate age. He/she better not come at me with that pro athlete ? when he 30 yrs old.

No, I'd rather them choose a more secure professionGuess I'd be the only ? parent, but you're going to med school, chap. If you want to play ball or act, it'll be done on the side.

Reminds me of Kevin Durant & his mom. He told his mom he really wanted to play basketball and she told him if he's serious about it then she'll support him but he has to practice, play, train almost everyday. She used to wake him up early on weekends for him work on his game and whatnot.

but at the end of it all, to answer the thread, hell yeah you support it. you let them aim high and if they make it .... GOOD!! but if they dont, they still fit in somewhere close. maybe you dont go pro, but maybe you come back, get into coaching and make good money around the activities you love. thats better than just going to college on some business administration or criminal justice ? . so if youre kid doesnt have a dream, then you are in for big problems. its not even a question whether to support their dreams, that just makes parenting easier in this society.

Yes, I'd fully support their dream, whatever it isI would definitely support them. When youre talking about sports getting that full ride to College can open up a lot of doors. A kid I coached in youth Football just received offers from USF and FSU as a Soph. in HS. You cant beat that.
Point is even if they don't turn Pro, that education will be there for one of those more secure professions. -

The rise of AAU basketball coincided with the Fab Five basketball recruiting class that led Michigan to consecutive Final Fours in the early 1990s.
Through it all, high school basketball always seemed to have its place in the recruiting business. Until recently, if there was a big-time prep recruit locally or nationally, coaches could still be seen walking the halls of a school, sitting in the stands of a game, dutifully taking notes.
That’s not the case now.
"If you are a player and you plan on playing basketball in college, you almost have to play AAU basketball," Utah Prospects coach Lynn Lloyd said. "In today’s world, scholarships are earned in the summer, not during the high school season. AAU and high school basketball coexist, and its nice to have them together. But the way coaches evaluate talent, it’s all AAU."
