It’s finally here. Opening Day for Baseball Season.  Every fan thinks their team can win the championship.  Excitement is in the air. The Cards are on T.V.

Mom I hope that you take a chance to sit down with your child and enjoy America’s Past-time.  It is a great opportunity to spend some quality time with our kids.

Tonight I have watched the Women’s NCAA Tourney with my daughter and as I write this my son just fell asleep watching the Cardinals. 

With all the things that seem to be wrong with pro sports today it gives us parents a chance to discuss some serious issues with our kids.  Tonight we talked about what it takes to be successful.  How hard it is to perform when a lot of people are watching.  What’s wrong with steroids. 10 year olds like to ask all kinds of questions.  And I love to answer them. 

Mom I think you will be surprised by your child’s reaction if you asked them to sit down and watch whatever sport they’re interested in.  If you are sincere about learning more about their interest they will open up to you as you ask more questions.  If you don’t know much about the sport ask a bunch of questions, they will love the fact that they are teaching you something and that you really care.

So Mom, Let’s watch some T.V. 

Your Kid will Love you for it.

God Bless,

Darrell
