This. So much this. Land the helicopter. Do something productive and stop with the creepy voyeuristic behavior.

Hello - some meets are a 30 minute drive away. That’s a pain to not be able to stay and watch. Fine if it’s around the corner. But watched your kids’ meet is not a helicopter- yes, for practices.

Some of us don’t want our kids videoed or their information put out there.

It’s fine to stay for practices.

Troll. Without a doubt.

Nope. Some parents really don't like the hyper parents and think it is in fact creepy. It is voyeuristic too. The viewing is for your pleasure. It has no benefit for the children you are watching. You are using kids for your enjoyment. There is something icky about that.

I think it’s better to carpool and leave but you do you.

Maybe in a waiting area or in the car.

Or exercise yourself with a walk or run errands nearby.

Enjoying your kids is creepy?!?
Lordy just when I think I’ve heard it all on DCUM.

Who are you to say that having a parent there to watch their kid compete does nothing for the kid? I have an under 10 who before every meet insists I try and time because she wants me there. I know that will change as she gets older but for now, she wants me there and so I will do my best to be there. It’s part of being a parent, showing up for your kid when they want you to.

Enjoy spending time with your children. Do something with them. Don't occupy their activities. Find a hobby for yourself that you can pursue while your child pursues their interest. Healthier for both of you.

It sounds like you need to be working on age appropriate independence and confidence. You are holding them back.

There should be 1 video cam per lane and one on the scoreboard like the Olympics, it would also cut down on the need for parents to be at the meets and cause congestion and inconvenience the parents.

Great idea! Are you paying for it? Running tech support? Setting it up?
