    Parents Pre-team Transition

    Thank you all for your responses and sharing your experiences! It’s definitely nice to know that other kids go through this transition too. I think you’ve all hit the nail on the head in a few ways. It’s definitely a bit of a comfort level thing (she’s a shy one!) and also a bit of age...

    Parents Dropping out of Pre-Team?
