[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I ran a sports league this summer for middle school boys (6th-8th) and I was absolutely shocked at the arguing and arguing and arguing with adults and the behavior in general (AND I HAVE THREE TEENAGED BOYS so its not like I'm not around kids all the time.)[/quote] I have all girls but my 10yo plays softball. The "arguing and arguing and arguing with adults" (coaches!) was shocking to me, too. Fortunately, it was only a couple girls, but they nearly ruined it for the rest of us. [/quote] I've seen this at tennis practices. Right around age 10 they decide they don't want to do ball pickup. Especially if the coaches are college kids. If I'm watching I step in there and yell at all of them to listen to their coaches and pick up the balls. They do. [/quote]
