Though most people think that boys are the only ones who get really interested in sports games at a young age and remain that way though life, there are plenty of girls who have the same interest. My daughter seems to be one of them, but I won’t know until she gets older. Though her interesting in sports might just be because that is how she spends time with her dad, I think she does like it on her own and I hope that this will be something that will carry her through school. Too many children are overweight, and I hope that she will remain active and healthy.
The sports games that she seems the most interested in are golf and soccer. I have a feeling that once she plays soccer she might not like it as much as she thinks, but I might be wrong. She also has some interest in playing baseball, and she is actually very good at hitting the ball for someone her age. She might be talented when it comes to sports games and events, and I can’t think of many things that would make me as happy as that. Children who are involved in sports are much less likely to drink and do drugs. Some still do, but the numbers are in my favor.

The purpose of ritual for men is to learn the rules of power and competition. Watching sports together, for example, they see the formal enactment of ritual, become loyal to a team, learn to conceal their vulnerability. The purpose of ritual for women (going to lunch together, sharing a favorite salon, etc.)It is usual for a Man who loves Country Sports to preserve the Game in his own Grounds, and divert himself upon those that belong to his Neighbour.

Many of the sports games that I loved when growing up where things that I was not allowed to play. I loved to play football, but my school did not allow girls to play. That might have been for the best, but that should have been my decision, not theirs. All the same, I would hope my daughter would not choose football, simply because it is hard on the body compared to other sports games that she could play.
Whatever sports games she chooses will be her own likes, and I will support her even if she is wanting to play something that I have no interest in what so ever. Perhaps when she plays the sport will grow on me. I know that it can be a little harder for dads to related to daughters, so I think if she wants to play sports games as she grows, her dad will be pleased and there will be more things that they can do together. They are already going to play some golf together, but she can’t do much more than swing at the ball at the driving range. I told him to be patient as she will get better soon enough and will have more interests.
