[quote=Anonymous]I have the opposite perspective and same conclusion. I was played a year-round travel sport as a youth, went to nationals each year, etc., and earned a full ride to a D1 university, was a starter all four years, all-American, and so on. It was a highly competitive environment from age 10 through 21. There wasn't a single time, not one time, where either of my parents commented negatively, critiqued, or gave any indication of anything other than 100% support. It was absolutely critical to my development and love of the sport. Coaching is for coaches. On the flip side, I played with athletes whose parents were total nightmares. We felt so, so bad for our peers having to live with that pressure. The pressure is bad enough! The recruiting process at age 14 is hard enough! If your husband cannot separate being a "dad" from being a coach, he cannot coach. Period. You need to take responsibility for the benefit of your family and shut. it. down.[/quote]
