[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^ these two are lucky that their kids aren’t an “embarrassment to the DA”[/quote]

So there is the crux of the disagreement. Some parents consider that language abusive and others consider it rude, but not abusive, and indicative of something the kid may experience out in the real world. Should coaches use that language? No. Is it abusive? That’s a matter of opinion and parents are free to make their choice about staying or leaving. [/quote]

Correct.  And for those of us who have chosen to leave and not subject our kids to that type of an environment over something as trivial as soccer, there are apparently people who rather say "you were cut" or "denied an offer" instead of recognizing a choice has been made.    But hey, if that's what they need to say to justify why they stay, have at it.  [/quote]

I don't assume everyone else was cut or not offered.  There's a right fit for every child, plenty of places to choose from around here.  But, the thought that FCV parents sit by and allow their kids to be abused all in the name of some wins and scholarships is just not accurate.  That talk should stop.  No parent in their right mind at any club is going to tolerate that.  [/quote]

Then perhaps FCV parents should lay off the attacks of other clubs then if they can't take any criticism themselves. [/quote]

uhmmmm okay.  I'm not whoever those parents are, so I don't criticize anyone for their club choice.  Wouldn't waste my time attacking anyone for that.  Just trying to shed dispell this myth that FCV parents only care about winning and are somehow sacrificing their children's well-being for it.  It's just not the case.[/quote]

You must be new here then. [/quote]

Naw, just clearing up this crazy notion.  I'm sure you'll find a lunatic or two at every club, but most soccer parents are similar in that they choose the best environment for their player and spend no time bashing other parents for their own choice.  [/quote]

Well, we feel so sorry for you. Bless your heart.[/quote]

Huh?  What the heck is that?  Why do you feel sorry for me?  What's with all that snark?  I haven't been snarky at all.  Why can't it just be a normal conversation without all that?  Nevermind, my fault for trying to be reasonable on this board.  [/quote]

FCV parent crying because folks criticize the club. Go read some tweets to feel better.[/quote]
