Description
When you become a parent, no one tells you how much time and energy—and, let's be real, money—you're going to spend on your child's extracurricular activities, especially sports. Is playing a sport even worth it? As a former athlete and current proud Sports Mom, Laura says YES! This week, she's sharing why the commitment to play a sport is so worthwhile for kids.
