Advice for Parents

Some of the absolute advise that I ever received from a Parent to a Parent was from Wayne Bryan. Wayne is Bob and Mike Bryan's dad. They are currently No 1 in the World in doubles and have been very successful. The advise he gave me 6 years ago was to make sure my young tennis player (10 at the time) was playing where the most kids were and where he would have the most fun playing the game. The abosolute best advise was, that if my son ever said, "I don't want to go to tennis today" Don't ask questions, just say OK no problem. Then it becomes about them, not about what we want for them.... It is NOT about us! Very Important!
