I have heard over and over that parents making contacts is a recipe for disaster. .....
However, given sons reluctance to call, would it be a total disaster if Dad contacts the coaches and explains the situation?
I am of the opinion that it's ok for the parents to open (and close) the recruiting contact process.
Thus, I am in disagreement with what your heard w/r to the recipe diaster.
I also have the opinion the young man or woman would do most of the work in the execution of the process, once he/she understand what the process is.
And yes, ultimately the decision is the child's.
