9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have 3 grandsons in the Forreston school, I'm not sure how I like the school, their mother signed them up for baseball this summer, 2 of my grandsons do not want to play, she didn't get my sons permission to sign them up, 2 of his kids do not want to do it. I thought that both parents have to sign them up. My son has joint custody. 2 of his kids tell him they don't want to play baseball, isn't their feelings considered in this. The mother shouldn't have signed them up when they aren't interested in playing. It would also take time away from their dad, and the court order that he needs to have them several times a week after school, and every other weekend for the entire weekend. He is not getting that now because of her signing them up for track and field, another sport that only 1 wanted to do. My son never gets the schedule for any of the events, only when she feels like texting him when the boys are doing sports.Other Review4y ago
