Absolutely. There are way too many fish in the sea. FCV coaches are abusive, they are dishonest and this poster ^^ is spot on regarding social media. Oh.. cute baby pictures! What a family environment - on Twitter. Ask those kids how many times BP has made them wonder about their self worth. |

Thanks for your insight fakenews guy. Every so often this list is plagued by some twit with a catchy saying they throw out on every thread. For a while we nad nothingburger guy, muhater guy, and now fakenews guy, to name just a few. What is next? |
This comment is just an attempt to distract the conversation from the topic at hand. Glad you support the bs culture and abuse at TSJFCV. Doesn't mean the rest of us have to or will. |
| There is no abuse At FCV. I laugh every time I see this on here. |
Is abuse funny? There are a variety of types of abuse. If your child had the same interactions as a lot of other kids with the coaches at FCV - you would call it abuse. And you wouldn't be laughing. Yes. We were one and done - new club. You have to take some responsibility as a parent and not accept over the line treatment in the name of soccer training. |
In our 4 years+ with the club, I have personally never witnessed any abuse nor has my child experienced any abuse. I hear rumors on here, that is about it. I consider these rumors made up because someone is bitter. |
+1 Long time FCV parent here as well. I’d never let my child be abused for soccer or anything else. None of the parents I know here would sit by and let that go. |
| ^^^ these two are lucky that their kids aren’t an “embarrassment to the DA” |
So there is the crux of the disagreement. Some parents consider that language abusive and others consider it rude, but not abusive, and indicative of something the kid may experience out in the real world. Should coaches use that language? No. Is it abusive? That’s a matter of opinion and parents are free to make their choice about staying or leaving. |
Correct. And for those of us who have chosen to leave and not subject our kids to that type of an environment over something as trivial as soccer, there are apparently people who rather say "you were cut" or "denied an offer" instead of recognizing a choice has been made. But hey, if that's what they need to say to justify why they stay, have at it. |
I don't assume everyone else was cut or not offered. There's a right fit for every child, plenty of places to choose from around here. But, the thought that FCV parents sit by and allow their kids to be abused all in the name of some wins and scholarships is just not accurate. That talk should stop. No parent in their right mind at any club is going to tolerate that. |
Then perhaps FCV parents should lay off the attacks of other clubs then if they can't take any criticism themselves. |
uhmmmm okay. I'm not whoever those parents are, so I don't criticize anyone for their club choice. Wouldn't waste my time attacking anyone for that. Just trying to shed dispell this myth that FCV parents only care about winning and are somehow sacrificing their children's well-being for it. It's just not the case. |
