[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You get this type of sports culture when parents treat the coach like a king to curry as much favor as possible so the kid gets fair or preferential treatment. So the coach can make any demands and set the penalties. Parents create this to some extent. [/quote]
Agree, the fact the PP mom with the daughter who got chewed out for coming to the hospital with her never said anything to the coach says more about her than it does the coach. [/quote]

She shouldn't have to worry about putting a coach in his place immediately after such a major health scare. I wonder how such people get chosen as coaches in the first place. [/quote]
You're right, she shouldn't but we don't pick and choose our situations and the point is, something should have been said once the health scare was over. Her silence communicated to the coach that she was OK with the situation when she was not. As long as parents act like doormats, don't be surprised that this poor behaviors continues.[/quote]
