Quote:I don't get much involved with juniors as it is fraught with problems.
really?
given the extreme criticism that is still continuing it is a wonder that juniors have any adults working with them at all.“To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.” (Anon)
will we end up with this? where we are so frightened/bullied/angry that we cannot nuture and encourage our juniors in this beautiful game.
Time I feel for more shut-up and more put-up.
finally; “If you want to make your dreams come true, the first thing you have to do is wake up.”
(JM Power).
we need to waken up! we have so much talent, goodwill and support we can have a far superior situation than we currently have. failure to "waken" up may result in no emerging juniors in the scottish scene.
p.s.
Andy (Muir) I dont feel we have anything to discuss, however you have some discussion (explanation?) to do. good luck, i still stand by my comment that you are a respected member of the chess community and hope that you remain so.
