How do you convince your parents to let you quit swimming?

Answer 1

Try doing little things around the house, like vaccuuming in the moring or dusting, helping cook, dust around the house or something and do things for them that they usually do for you, like tidy your room and make your bed and things, because little things like this really make a parent feel happy.

Answer 2

Explain all the pros of joining track to your parents. Being a part of a sports team is a great asset to any resume. It shows that you have interests outside of academics, that you are dedicated, that you aren't afraid to face a challenge and that you are a team player. Future employers and/or potential colleges/universities want well rounded people that know how to interact with others. Joining track will give you the opportunity to learn how to be a part of a team. It will also teach you how to have a healthy lifestyle. Once you learn how to challenge your body physically and be in shape, it is difficult to break the habit. And that's a good thing! Joining a track team can also teach you a lot about time management. While parents may be concerned that joining the team may cause you to lose focus on other more important things (such as schoolwork), it may actually do the very opposite. Many people are able to focus better when they keep in shape by being involved on a sports team. Because you will have less time, that time will be more valuable to you and you will have to learn to use it more efficiently. Also, in comparison with other sports such as football and soccer, track is relatively safe. It is also relatively cheap when compared with sports like ice skating and tennis. All you need is a good pair of shoes!
