[quote=Anonymous]Parents and coaches yelling at the kids while they're playing is not normal and it is not acceptable. If your team does this you need to either try to address it or find another team. While it is not normal or healthy, it is sadly all too common in youth sports in this country. This essay says it pretty nicely, if you imagine us teaching our children any other childhood activity the way we teach them sports you can see the absolute absurdity of our approach to youth sports. Mike Woitalla "Time for a Children's Revolt" from Youth Soccer Fun [url]http://www.youthsoccerfun.com/2007/07/time_for_a_childrens_revolt.html[/url] Imagine looming over your child coloring and screaming at them for going out of the lines. Ridiculous, right? So why would you do that at a soccer game? Why should you allow their coach to do that? [/quote]
