You know you're a hockey parent when....
1. You base the next purchase of your vehicle on whether it will hold six kids, six sticks, and six hockey bags.
2. Your spouse waits until you decide where to sit and then chooses a spot on the opposite side of arena.
3. You ground your kids for a week (except for hockey practice).
4. You can rationalize spending $300 on a stick for a nine-year-old but won't spend $5 on a birthday card for the wife.
5. When someone asks how old your children are you respond, "I have a '95 and a '99"
6. You know a few five-year-olds who are good but "lack focus".
7. You have had kids ask if Christmas is "home or away."
So true...
