The point is that it’s not CM’s fault that kids don’t have talent. To some degree you’re born with it or you aren’t. And kids get better by hitting the wall and doing the extra work outside of club practice. He can’t control that, and there’s only so much any club can do to make individual kids better. But too many parents whose kids don’t have enough talent and/or aren’t working hard enough blame the club or coach for not making their kid a superstar - or not recognizing that their kid is a. superstar. Rest assured - if your kid is good, ML will play them. So will NL, DCE and all the rest.

CM’s has done himself no favors, but most of the time it’s the parents who are the problem. From the tone of your post, you’re probably one of those parents.
