There were over 120 people who auditioned for 20 slots. You can’t sit there and get mad at me, just because we are in the same home district because you, as a parent want this more than your son.

He auditioned. He didn’t make it. He’s 13 years old and I’m sure he understands that if he didn’t make it, he didn’t make it.

Just because I’m his taiko leader in the zone does not mean that I have so automatically let him into a team when he has a problem with commitment and whatnot

This is a faith based training group, within the Buddhist organization we are in, so of course, we would like it if you encouraged people with your own experiences in life and not just you in your phone all the time.

This is not the first nor is it the last festival that’s going to happen. He’s young, he can participate in the next one when he’s a little more committed and you are not acting like such a stage mom.

Please stop. Leave me alone. I am one of 5 taiko leaders. You have a problem, talk to them, I actually said yes to him being on the team, the others were not as lenient.

I don’t make the final final decision. Therefore don’t make me feel like shit when it wasn’t just me.
