[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Throughout his life, your son's going to meet people who are going to say critical, unhelpful things. Since you can't monitor and take steps to "fix" every one of these situations, you'll help him the most by talking to him about how to respond to these comments/support his resilience in the face of discouraging commentary and attitudes. [/quote] Wrong. The coach works for the parents, kids, school or club. If this is a club for fun/recreation, the coach needs to drop the negative attitude. This is not the Bela Karolyi/Nadia Comaneci story; the Olympics are not on the line.

Just b/c the coach may be a talented swimmer doesn't mean he/she is good at coaching.[/quote][/quote]
