[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, certain sports are known for having terrible parents. [b]In declining order of awfulness: hockey[/b], lacrosse, basketball. Tennis parents can be highly competitive but they are more underground about it. Don’t know why but swimming and track parents generally seem nicer. [/quote] I'm going to stick up for hockey parents here, at least a bit. No question that there are some terrible hockey parents out there (I can't ever hear the Ozzy Osborne song "Crazy Train" without thinking of one mom in particular), but my kid played (reasonably) high level youth hockey for 10 years, and I made many great friends amongst the parents. The Youth Industrial Sports Complex does create a lot of pressure on the kids and parents, and many hockey parents are very Type A, and it shows. But if you can find the right group, hockey parents are great.[/quote]
