Baseball is a love hate relationship for me. My older 2 didn’t love baseball they liked it. They’re going to try to play middle school ball but neither will be devastated if they don’t make it. My youngest loves baseball. From the time he was 4 all he wants to do is throw or hit a ball. It gets really obnoxious at times but it’s all he studies. He walks around throwing ghost balls and swinging ghost bats if he’s not actually playing.

As far as the money goes. You’re going to spend it on something for your kids. My oldest 2 are eat up with t the outdoors. So I spent on guns and bows and fishing tackle etc.. I don’t see how spending money on baseball is any different. I always said I would support my kids interests as best as I could. In my opinion if you start looking at it a some sort of investment or expecting some sort of return you’ll never find a worthy cause.
