Re: The negative effects of FRC

to be kept in mind: teenagers do not always make intelligent choices (I know I didnt ). hell, adults do a lot of stupid stuff too. teaching these students how to manage their time in stressful, high-work situations like build season and events should be part of the FIRST experience - it's more than just robots, no? Although I do agree with the general sentiment in this thread, that most of these are not FIRST's issue, save the food breaks and paper airplanes, it doesn't mean the FIRST and the teams shouldn't be aware of these things, and try to at least mitigate the ill effects of FRC as much as possible.
