[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reality is, there's always going to be obnoxious parents and obnoxious athletes. They usually have their obnoxious posse of similarly obnoxious friends. It's fun to commiserate about THAT group of people, but ultimately, they're not going anywhere, and if the athlete is a top athlete on the team, leadership will look the other way. The difference in the higher divisions is that the obnoxious behavior is more open and likely accepted as mainstream. What works for our family (and may not work for yours) is that we enforce an athlete's ineligibility to compete. In other words, you have a bad attitude against your team or your opponents, you have a bad attitude against yourself because of your performance, you have a bad attitude because you're a hormonal kid, etc.... you are ineligible to compete. If that costs points? Fine. We refuse to raise entitled jerks.[/quote] Oh I can totally get behind this!!!!! [/quote]
