Making your kids fans.

Swag seems to be going through that stage Milky went through a couple years ago where he can’t see the funny side of anything. Damn teen angst. He’ll eventually lighten up.

I'll just drown my sorrow with a beer.
 
I wasn't forced into a team but my Dad is a massive Manly supporter, but he watches every NRL game and I think he may be a closet Wests Tigers fan these days..

Supported the Seagulls until they folded, but had a soft spot for the Tigers as Wayne Pearce and some players did a local clinic when I was a kid. Also didn't want to be a glory hunter and pick the best team.

But I never had a choice in Ford :righton: v Holden as the family is from Bathurst and take it very serious.
 
My family is a dictatorship. Hands down.

My parents and wife are dragons.

The 5 kids are 10000% tigers.

She ensures we all follow paternal leadership all almost all.areas of life.

I am proud to be an old school family.
 
Some of my nieces and nephews follow the broncos and roosters but only when they are winning it seems….they know they only have to wait a few years before the wheel turns....you got to stick thick to be a tigers fan....I like that somehow perversely....it’s so much sweeter when we win
 
I’ve been to many grand finals now but nothing compare to when the tigers are involved. In 2005 walking home along George street at 11pm with the old man and best mate with tigers chants, horns beeping, people bonnet surfer and sheer joy was one the the best feelings of my life…..what....there are other crazy tigers supporters out there who love them as much as me? Seems so and lots of them
 
My boys claimed they were going to follow the Sharks. I told them they were going to live in the chook pen from now on. Soon sorted them.
 
The first ever game of football i watched on tv with my brother (11yrs older) grand final in 88\. Lived out of town and didn't play sports so was a treat for me as an 8yr old. Been a solid supporter since.
My son was born in June 05 don't think that year could of got any better for me. I never pushed him to support wt but he does. Got bullied bad by the league boys at school so not too interested in football. I think he will be loyal to wt though.Comes to my games and watches keenly but doesn't want to watch other games.

Get him into a martial art…

100%
Good for confidence, self worth…
Instils discipline. Make some new friends. Learn to defend yourself if needed and good physical exercise.

I have a boxing and kick boxing background but I wish I had a black belt in something.....
Get him started now and he could be a black belt by 18!

From training or from fighting people? Lol..
Get busted knees from being a runner so as always u have take the good with the bad.
Excercise and physical health is important.
If you're worried about your knees stick to the swimming pool ?
 
My brother is a Parra fan. He has two toddlers (1 & 3) both boys. He is trying to brainwash them now to be Eels fans even though they live in the Gong. He told me a few months ago "do you know how hard it is to make a kid like an Eel?". I only see them once a month and just go "raaaa" and roar them a couple of times and they are both running around like Tigers for days

He was a brown belt before he stopped the year prior. There is more to it but I'll leave there.
