It can be the first of many years of convincing a child that this game is fun. Then when they get other children actually throwing at them you will have entered a new realm of convincing them they’re having fun.
Too true. Also, I'm old now and the kids are grown and gone so I found this HILARIOUS!! Not because those kids are going through all of this themselves, right? That would seem an awful lot like revenge. 🤭🤭🤣😅
I've seen too many episodes of Ridiculousness to ever go anywhere near a kid holding a bat. Two years of little league couldn't kill my love of baseball, but it taught me to avoid little league.
When we were still in the US, we signed our older daughter up for soccer, which mostly involved a bunch of 5 year olds running around wildly somewhere in the vicinity of a ball and a couple of nets. Seems more manageable than tee ball.

Ah, I've heard of this! I think they call it "generational trauma."

I’m sure this is how my parents feel…
Oh my God, this is so funny! I was so happy that my son quickly lost interest in sports.
Lol it took mine about 1/16th of a practice!
My son, who is now a really funny 18-year-old used to act out a baseball game while he was playing. It was a mess.

lol sounds similar to my own little league experience
And yet you still play hardball. Or rather, you play hardball again.
Research the "horeshoe theory."
If your son hasn't been drafted into the Dodgers farm system by this age, he's fallen too far behind, Greg.
You don’t think I’ve told him that??!

Oh definitely. A lesson has been learned.
