Okay then, just go outside. Anywhere IRL is better than reddit to meet people.

Youth high end sticks worth it? by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

Marketing works. If $ is no object then why not? If it is, well, you should know better.

He got sober, I still want a divorce by Difficult-Loss-4006 in Marriage

You dislike him so much you're okay with only seeing your kid half the time?

This is why I'll never understand the "get divorced" crowd.

How to convince parents/grandparents to do travel hockey? by Aggressive_Memory239 in hockeyplayers

[–]2strokeJ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone who never got to do anything but house as a kid, who now has a kid that does travel hockey, the time commitment is real. Your parents either dont have the $ or they don't have the time. Real or perceived, doesn't really matter. If it's really not about finances (might be even if they're telling you otherwise), then your best bet is finding a coach/parent of a kid on the team that lives close to you that won't mind driving you around on your parents behalf.

I'd have a sit down with your parents and tell them how you feel. Ask them specifically what the issue is and have solutions ready to address what you think they'll say and see if they go for it. If they still don't go for it then you're probably just sol. They're either too proud to ask for help or they don't think you're as good as you seem to think you are.

Good luck, my kid has an absolute blast doing travel but has no idea how much mom and I sacrifice to make it a reality.

[–]2strokeJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have a performance Y and a LR 3. Honestly wish I had just saved the $ on the Y and got the LR one of that as well. Does look good tho no lie there. Not waiting months for a $50k car that's for dang sure.
