The Mumsnet Guide to Caring for Your Child's Teeth. How much fluoride should a child have? What will cause the most damage - chocolate or raisins? Is fruit juice ok? For the truth about what will and won't cause decay to top tips for reluctant brushers, fill in your gaps on dental hygiene here.
I reckon I might mention it alongside a conversation about wanting to encourage the dses and how does team selection work, does everyone get a chance? something like that.
oh mebbe if he coaches there (thought he just coached in general), they didn't pick them specifically because of that (anti favouritism and all) but that's a shit reason imo
ah right WELLL the first week they said they had a match where theyd put intallt he players from last year just that once. and THIS was CANCELLED apprently so we think slection this week is form THAt game,,, wiht newboy slotted in to make up the number interstingly all the kids are adult players sons.
dh is hacked off but thinks he will give them one morechance and then if no jjoy mention it and go somwhere else,
they haev eveen asked dh to get a CRB check to coach!!
This does sound odd. Foxinsock's suggestions are good.
Last year, my daughter, the best runner in her year and never beaten by any other girl, was given the throwing in the inter-school athletics championships. She was gutted--it felt like she was being punished for being good at running. I had a word with the teacher and she was put back into the running. Which she won: both for her year and the year above. This was the only time I have ever commented on team selections in their school careers. I think it was just the teacher being dippy, tbh. She never keeps notes of who wins what.
even newboys mum admits they are way better. she is a sweet heart and a mte of mine. am thinking there was one space adn they put him in rather than ahvign to chosse between the dsses deluded moi?!
I think that would annoy me so much (the selection being the adult player's kids), I'd find another cricket club. But I'm a bit hot headed with this stuff and can't BEAR all this sporty selection stuff.
If it makes you feel any better, I tried 3 cricket clubs for ds before I found one which I felt was right. First one was far too strict and pushy, second one was all buddy buddy stuff , last one is just the right balance of play and serious and ds LOVES it.
I don't think there's any problem looking around for the right club because not all of them have the right ethos imho. But probably sensible to give it a chance I guess.
Just a suggestion, but is it possible that he was chosen as it's an easy fixture and they didn't want too strong a side? We've had instances with school matches where if you field the strongest team the victory is so overwhelming it's embarassing. Such occassions are a good opportunity for weaker players to have a chance to play.
a rl mate of mine has htis with her kid toowho wasnt so godo at footie
but i said if they want your h to coach thats theprice they pay - he isnt a babysitter -w hat are htey supposed to do wiht their OWN kid when tehy have matches.
