Before I retired I had parents tell me that earning a UIL first division was "nothing". Placing [i.e. winning a plastic trophy]in competitions and advancing to Area finals, SMBC, BOA, etc. was what they expected. Never mind to them that the very complainers had excuses for their children as to why they didn't attend rehearsals (we were well within the 8 hour rule).
One of the loudest parent critics had a child who wasn't even eligible for one of our UIL events in the first place...true story.
