I watched a commentator talking about Phelps and his mother. Apparently when he was 11, he was a pretty good swimmer, and the coach came to his mother, and said he had a 17 year plan for Michael.
The first four years involved training every day, seven days a week, for four years. Apparently he had a gold medal before he had a driver's licence.
If you had an 11 year old who was a pretty good swimmer, would you commit your kid to something like that, for a chance years down the road, for Olympic medals, etc.?
