Reply to "Coaching your own kid"

I coached mine in Little League 11-12 and in Jr League 13-14. Just "helped" out previous to that. Did find myself with a double standard in regards to him, but also noticed that he thought he could get away with more. We butted heads on more than one occasion over things that would not have been a problem if we weren't father/son. We have stopped the Rec ball this year and he has spent the last 2 years on a very well coached travel ball team. Now I'm just the driver/home practice partner/dad in the stands. Guess what? I love it to death.

A friend of mine did approach me the other day with the idea of starting a 10U travel team...no coach's kids on the team.Hmmmmm, now that's a thought.
