As it happens, New Year's Eve 2018 is the 10th anniversary of the premiere of this blog, which I called Your Kid's Not Going Pro when I started it as an independent site. So here is how I started:The title of this blog (“Your Kid’s Not Going Pro,” in case you hadn’t figured that out) sounds bitter and dream-killing, but instead it should be taken as a positive. You’re not going pro either, bub. There a lot of things I've learned in 10 years of writing about youth sports, coaching youth sports, parenting youth athletes, and just being a parent (with my lovely wife) in general. I'm not saying it's easy to take the news that a child you're raising, or you're coaching, has decided to move on to something else.
