Jurgen Schmieder, Los Angeles
My son Finn has been drafted into the Los Angeles Kings youth roster. Sorry, but this blatant boast is unfortunately necessary to understand what is happening to our family right now. It’s not about ice hockey or the madness with youth sports, but about: roots. Finn, 13, is now part of a team, the players are close friends, they’ve only just been to the cinema; “Minions”, all wore suits, including Junior Kings shirt.
