  Case: Their kids play sports
You are a high school teacher, and Caleb Rushmore is the star running back for the football team. He sleeps in class and is extremely focused on football, and is, in fact, counting on a football scholarship. When his parents come in to conference, their main concern is his sports participation and eligibility. How would you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would speak to the parents about the importance of a good education. While the student may have the ability to earn a scholarship, and possibly even the ability to make it as a professional football player, unforeseen events do occur. The student may become injured and no longer be able to play. In this case, the student will need an education to be able to take another career path. In addition, even if the student does earn a college sports scholarship, no university will allow him to continue to play if his grades are not sufficient to stay enrolled in the college.
