The pitch? "We’ll turn your kid into the next #prodigy."
The reality? High burnout, injury risks from early specialization, and kids priced out.
It’s getting so intense that lawmakers are taking notice—expect youth sports privatization to be a major policy debate.
A few wild examples of the PE takeover:
• Black Bear: Nation’s largest rink operator charges parents $37/mo just to stream their kids' games & bans personal livestreams.

In the US, the FDA says that consumers understand that nut milks, etc., aren’t actually milk. In fact, that’s why they buy them. So, as long as they’re clearly labeled, they can still be sold as milk.
