Reply to "Bad player behavior starting in high school?"

It’s now starting in Little League. Those kids see HS, college, & MLB players showboating, taunting, & disrespecting opponents. Idiot announcers and fans call this “celebrating” so the kids think it’s cool so they emulate the behavior. The entire phenomenon is disgusting to me and IMO the problem starts at home. Too many parents are accepting of disrespect. I know it’s a dicey thing to correct kids’ behavior that aren’t your own, but I think there is nothing wrong with doing that if the situation calls for it.
