[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 296033, member: 1233"] It truly is scary to a lot of the kids to hear mom and dad yell and scream some of the things they do at games. Then the kids are supposed to "know" how to act in public??? After seeing some of the other players' parents at a few games I got a clear indication of why the kids were mean. I was usually the one to go hand a bottle to a wound up parent and tell them to chill out. A few times I would go near the person screaming mean things and tell them off. If they DARED yell at MY KID? O. M. G.!!!! husband actually held on to me at one game. A guy called Jessie a slacker and a waste of field time. She had kicked the ball away from his kid (they were on opposite teams) three times and then his daughter kicked her knee. She went down on the field and missed the rest of the game. This guy was mad at Jess because his daughter got tossed out of the game for kicking her. I HEARD this man yell good job to his child when she kicked Jess. Jess didn't have the ball at all. THEN I heard a mom say she wished the coach would stop telling them to take fouls if they can keep a strong playerr from playing. He gave the vicious kids more field time if they got tossed out for hurting someone! Not only did the coach get thrown out, the team had to forfeit all of their games that season. I was the B.witch of the soccer assn because I spoke out to the council about what he did. The coach was ON the council and when I said I was going to the news with this (and I know several reporters because I went to school with them) then they kicked him and his team out. The kids were at fault, but most of the blame was on the adults. Parents knew he told them to hurt people and none of them squawked about it. [/QUOTE]
