[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  DD was not fouling anyone or being overly aggressive.  She takes good sportsmanship seriously, for example, if she gets tangled up with another player and the other player or both of them fall down she helps her up and asks if she ok.  She really is an exceptional athlete, I'm not just saying this, I've been told by coaches and parents for years.  I think the parents are responding to the fact that DD can out run their kids and steal the ball away from them and score.  So they were heckling her pretty badly.  This has never happened before where she was being called out by her jersey #, I've hard it in the past where they will yell at the ref saying that play wasn't fair or whatever, but it was never directly at her and never personal like it was last night.  She has always been able to ignore that type of stuff in the past, but last not was different, it was vicious.

[b]I'm saddened and surprised that people automatically assume its her fault somehow, instead of being appalled like I was that grownups are acting this way at a child's game[/b].  [/quote]

I agree with you. Why are some on DCUM so nasty? I'm sorry this is happening to your kid. All your points are valid. I also agree with the other poster that said you should confront them. If it continues to be unwarranted and nasty I would totally approach the parents. I would also probably talk to the ref's and whoever else in charge. I am not normally an aggressive or confrontational person, but if a grown ass adult is going to be NASTY to my child, my mama bear will come out. It's easy to heckle a 10 year, how about you try saying that stuff to me as I stand right here in front of you???[/quote]
