Sounds like some great parents posting here. Wish I could have read this over 30 years ago.

 

My older son was extremely talented, we would fight after some of the games. I wanted what was best for him, just didn't know any better at the time.

 

Youngest son was not nearly as talented, I was much more at ease and took it easy on him. Even though he wasn't as good, I kind of did enjoy the games a lot more.

 

Older son played one year of minor league baseball, broke his wrist and hung it up.

 

Youngest son was pitching in the Big Leagues at age 22. Then had TJ urgery and 4 years later played nearly the whole year again in the Big Leagues.

 

Sometimes us elderly people just had to learn things too late. If someone really cares, there is a lot to learn on this site. Always much better when you can learn from the mistakes others have made, than having to learn from your own.
