[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son's coach would have benched him for having Mommy step in. No, I'm not a troll. My son's friend was benched for this very reason. A 14 year old needs to talk to the coach himself, and pay attention to what he is told.[/quote] I think at the 13-14 YO stage, there is a place for parents to be involved in the discussion as support for their child. Not to barge in and yell at the coach, but to be part of a civil, production conversation. To exclude parents really is just clubs and coaches taking advantage of the power dynamic between the adult coach and the child. [/quote] Mom in the background is different than Mom talking to the coach herself.[/quote]
