Why I Support My Son’s Decision To Put College On Hold … To Surf – Forbes.
As a mom of a surfer, I have come to learn—and accept—that there’s a certain surf culture, which says that when there are waves, you gotta surf them. It’s not like running, for example, which you can pretty much do whenever you want, because the road is always there. With surfing, you’re at the mercy of Mother Nature’s decisions to give you good waves (or not). And yes, sometimes that means missing first period.
Again, I realize I’m risking judgment from other parents here. But Bradley has always been a good and responsible student who is more than trustworthy to make up any missed work. Besides, he is more inspired about life when he’s out there surfing, instead of being stuck in a classroom some days.
To inspiration. Long may you run Bradley.
