Same here, but it's my mother. She thinks it's just for the money. I've given up explaining it to her.

I hear that all the time.

When I explain the true story:
  1. Mileage
  2. Uniforms
  3. State Licensing
  4. Mileage
  5. Getting abused by every adult who thinks I'm rooting for the other team
  6. Two Local Association Dues
  7. Mileage
  8. Getting abused by every father who thinks I ripped off his little girl because I called travelling
  9. Did I Mention Mileage?

they look at me like I'm crazy.
