[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As I told my son when he was goalie, to score a goal the other team has to get past your entire team first. Therefore it is [i]everybody's[/i] fault if the other team scores, not just the goalie's fault.[/quote]

This is something I might go stomping over to tell my kid's team if I heard them yelling at my kid.[/quote]

Or you just tell your kid this privately and never address anyone's kid, unless you would like parents addressing your kid.

Jesus, you sound like a total jerk. You might just stay the eff away from the game.[/quote]

Blow me. If other kids are yelling at my kid, they're going to get the rebuke they deserve.[/quote]

You are the embodiment of a rec parent. Talk to the coach about the "chatter" on the field. But as a parent you should set the example not only for your kid but for the other kids as well. They are 11 and can get a "pass" to a point, but as an adult, yelling at someone else's, you look like a jerk and are over stepping your boundaries. NEVER address another kid in a negative way, and best to simply leave negative comments to yourself all around.

Just relax.

Keep in mind that not a single person in this thread has endorsed your behavior. That alone should tell you something.

Coach you kid during the week. Talk to your kid about how to take and shake of criticism. Those are the things that are positive that you can contribute, but on game day, keep your mouth shut. [/quote]
