Slightly off topic but there is no reason whatsoever for someone wanting to go to college, not to go because "they can't afford it". Every kid out of high school can go to college. They can take out a loan to pay for college and then pay the loan back when they graduate and get a good paying job.
They won't get it free but they can still go to college. Of course, that person needs to make the right choice and choose a plan that will put them on the path to a good job.
I taught my kids these lessons while they were kids. When do you want to teach them? After they're grown and already lost what mattered to them?
Some life lessons aren't easy and do come at a price.
Maybe I expect a lot...but there's a lot at stake, no?

Its our responsibility as a society to help our children have the best foundation possible. Fighting for themselves is one of those, and knowing when an issue is bigger than themselves is another. With that said, I won't teach my kids the "right answer" is to pick up the ball and go home and cry about it when something isnt going their way. Yes, they fight, but not by quitting.

Yes those girls should risk what they are about to lose forever anyway. It won't be long til all those scholarships will be going to men who dress like women anyway. They may as well fight now or lose it all.
And yes we should all be fighting this. Quit watching, supporting, and participating in women's sports and it will right itself in about a week.

That is my issue, your response is to quit and it will get better. Quit Quit Quit
So you expect 12-20 year old girls to take on the fight by themselves, especially when they are getting brainwashed in school? Seriously?
I knew girls that could only afford college because of sports scholarships. Should they take on the battle by getting kicked out of the program or should we as adults help with what’s right?
I agree this major problem was created by very irresponsible adults and should be fixed by RESPONSIBLE adults BUT if the girls in this sport would ban together(form a union)and refuse to compete against a cheater, a man, they could end the ridiculousness in a week..

That is not the answer here.
Riigghht.
I didn't say quit. I said organize and stop playing til they get their heads outta their butts and do the right thing. It's like a strike at work. You don't quit. You make the organization lose money til they do what's right. Same with parents, family and friends. They should all stop giving them money and support til they understand who funds them. Like I said it all goes away in a week as soon as the wheels on the money machine stop turning. Everyone, adults and kids, should be fighting this. And punching them in the wallet is the fastest way to get results.
Funny that quitting is you're first thought tho. You do you.

Sweet Jesus its like arguing with an elementary kid. OK you have it all figured out. My question is, how did it work for the NFL, Nike or any other "thing" people decided they should "hit them in the wallet."

Name calling?....I guess that's better than quitting, huh?
Thats another thing I taught my kids at an early age was when you have to resort to name calling in a discussion, you've lost your credibility and proven you have no substance left to support your own stance.
So, yes, I did say the word "quit". You got me. Case closed. You win.
Of course unless you read what I said in the whole context and understand the word "quit" was used more in the sense of "stop" and wasn't meant as a permanent position. Only a temporary one to get they're attention. But anyone interested in seeing the actual context knew that. Someone like yourself who's intention is to win an argument at any cost however only sees what they can use to win. I don't care about winning an argument. I just want to shed some light on what might actually bring a positive change to a bad situation.
But come to think about it, I don't really have anything invested in sports of any kind, much less women's sports so have fun with your girls getting pounded by men while you keep supporting them on the sidelines. That'll show em! Let me know how many girls are still playing sports in 10 years and how many are still getting scholarships.
The NFL? I dont know, I haven't watched a game in years. Are they still kneeling for the anthem?

According to several polls, less than 60% of democrats favor allowing transgender females to participate in women's sports. Multiple women's rights advocacy groups are also fighting it. Fox News recently reported on one of those groups have announced they are 100% against allowing this. A number of female athletes have also taken this stand, including some who are gay, like Martina Navritilova.
The rules will likely change sooner than later because not every Democrat is a woke liberal. Just like every Republican isn't a racist or whatever the other side is generalizing about at the time.
