Participation trophies. For when you care enough to say you're mediocre.

Oh man,... that's a sore point with me,.. "Participation Trophies"! How NOT to prepare your kids for life! I'll be back here commenting!!

Seriously... I love the Kia commercial where the dad rips the plate off of his son's trophy that says "participation:. Then he takes out a Sharpie and writes champion on it.

ROFL!! IKR! That would be me...! WTF is a "participation" trophy anyway?? What moron came up with that crap? The world is crumbling around us bro!

MVB ... most valuable bench warmer

I think we are close in age,.. by your memes and comments. I went through this when my daughter was young,... being on a 2nd place Soccer team,.. 1st place volleyball team,.. and getting a "participation trophy". I voiced my objection,.. and the tide of other parent complaints followed!! It's BS.

Agreed, if everyone is exceptional, than by definition no one is exceptional. We stopped trying to lift everyone up in this country a long time ago, we are settling for equal.

It's "offensive" to better yourself...
OMG,... I'm gonna go on a rant,... I feel it coming!!!

Its not offensive to better yourself, as long as you're not better than the rest.

Or "act" like therest,... "talk" like the rest....
(I feel my BP spiking!) ha ha ha!

That's awesome

I know, ya gotta love it!
