[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would suggest trying to give him a "job" to do during the game and also point out that it is hard for the kids to hear/process/execute on yelled instructions during the game. I also have a hard time just watching quietly when my kid is playing soccer. Your DH has all this nervous energy (regardless of whether you think he should or not, his body is producing adrenaline that needs somewhere to go). Someone suggested that he could record the game (or certain plays) - that would give him something to do besides yell. Or is there a calmer parent that he could chat with during the game - where they are sharing their observations, but not yelling at the kids. [/quote] +100. My husband started recording the games for the team a couple years ago- when he realized how much audio he needed to cut out, that really made him realize how much he needed to curb his yelling/sarcastic comments.[/quote]
