[quote=Anonymous][quote]I am not sure it is worth going to the commissioner, but it is certainly part of the value system we try to instill in the kids we are working with as parent volunteers. [/quote] That was exactly my point. Yes, it's a teachable moment. And no, kids shouldn't be allowed to use that kind of language. One of the benefits of sports is that it offers the opportunity to teach teamwork and good sportsmanship. However, a first grader saying "up my butt" is hardly worth going to the commissioner over. If they were cursing and the coach wasn't handling it, I would feel differently. But come on....these are first graders. And contrary to the previous posters claims of "bad parenting", it's much more likely they learned the words from friends and/or older brothers and sisters.[/quote]
