Reply to "Taking a break from coaching to watch son?"

I can't comment from coaches perspective, I can tell you from a business owners perspective.

As a coach or as an owner you chose to dedicate your time to other places for the potential tremendous rewards. The rewards may be different in professions but ultimately they are still rewards. What I have found is the relationship with my sons, the enjoyment I received from watching them, friends I have made with other (at least some of the other certainly not all) parents who make the same choices have compensated me much more then the money left on the table or the business opportunities left behind due to my choice.

I can only say your sons will have a short window of playing, your coaching skills and the gifts that come from them will in demand for a far longer time frame.
