Do you know how much your child weighs down to the ounce? Do you avoid making eye contact with your child after he or she loses a match until your child approaches you? Do you find yourself wearing the school colors every day whether or not you are attending a meet or tournament?
Then you're a WMD. A Wrestling Mom or Dad.
And we'd love to hear your stories. Submit a guest column, a few photos, videos, or comments and we will publish them on the site.

Ahhh….may I never have to wait in West Sub’s emergency room for hours for MRI’s and CAT scans. And Coach Powell…he was wonderful to Mike when he was injured. I love this blog and I miss being a wrestling Mom.
