[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think EVEN rec soccer is for everyone.  I know it it's all inclusive but parents, you know if you have a difficult kid or not.  Why throw him to a parent volunteer coach that probably doesn't have the knowledge or time to work with your child independently.  I just read many nice stories about inclusion and all that but, I agree that it's not fair for everyone to register a problem child....unless you volunteer to assist and be very hands on.  Of course some horsing around is expected.  They are kids. But I think everyone knows a dozen kids that OP is talking about.  These kids need to work with their parents at home until they are ready.  If the parent can't handle this, how can they expect another parent volunteer coach to handle it?[/quote]

OP isn't just concerned about bad behavior. She also called out kids who are "out of shape" and uncoordinated "can't walk a d chew gum at the same time." That's a really pathetic way for an adult to feel about little kids' rec sports. It shouldn't matter one iota of a first grader is any good at soccer. I don't care if they literally never manage to make contact with the ball. The point is having fun, learning good sportsmanship, and getting exercise. If you think it's not fair that your soccer superstar has to share the field with some unathletic kids, well, honey, you should get a life. [/quote]
