I want to thank all the parents who have created a padded, protected, power puff path for their kids in life. I dealt with my kids using reality. It made them mentally tougher than the power puffs. They didn't have any trouble getting great jobs and succeeding. When they've been told they haven't done well enough they don’t sulk. They work harder and do better.
Do parents of starting players ever make an effort to get coaches fired? My son’s high school coach got sick of parents, quit and bought a baseball academy so he could stay connected to the game. Two other coaches from the conference joined him.
