Players being released from academies or even grass roots teams

Speaking with other players/parents it seems that every one has rollercoaster of emotions and journeys. Would be interested to see how many have been released from academies or even grass roots teams and at what ages that was ? To help others any advice on what you did next or how this affected you ? Every one seems to want academy football, but how many realise how demanding it is for players and parents and understand the different pressures that brings to them also ?
