Okay I am a mother first and a ballplayers mother second and when my kid comes home and says "Someone was watching me" it gives me a creepy feeling when he added the words "at practice" it still gave me a creepy feeling, but I am trying to remember the context.
When a child sees someone watching them at a practice, i.e. staring at them and when he moved stations they moved location to keep watching, is it okay to ask the coach if he knows the guy? I'm not talking for recruitment purposes like oh yeah find out who he was in case he is a coach, I'm asking because there is a creep factor. I typically drop my kid off at the gate and pick him up at the gate but there is a whole lot of ground to walk before he gets to the car.
What should a kid do when he sees someone watching him during baseball practice? Ask the coach who the guy is, ask a buddy to walk him to his car??? What is the protocol here?
