That’s so horrible

It is horrible. My kids were always much taller and bigger than peers (not red shorted, just like that from birth). People said stuff like that to them.

My Mil does things like that. It’s horrible. I try to remind her that’s someone child and she says it’s just an observation. 😞

She would never know about another game. This reflects really poorly on your family.

Another mom from the same team was clearly high rolling on her back on the ground. She had a meth face. It was very odd.

This was in maryland.

A meth head mom involved in baseball? Who would’ve thunk?

We made the mistake of signing our son up for the "mini division" of Soccer Shots. This is for 2-3 yo's. We witnessed one dad screaming at his son that if he didn't start running they wouldn't be going to the birthday party that afternoon. Most of the other kids were playing in the grass or just randomly running around because as we should have realized prior to signing up, they are two and three yo's and grass is fun. Horribly uncomfortable to witness. We took the sunk cost, brought our kid out for pancakes, and never went back.

Tiger mom was yelling at my kid during the basketball game because he wasn't playing as well as her all-star who on the same team. Multiple times she came over to me to tell me how bad of a player my son was compared to her and I should be doing x,y and z to make him better. Then she would yell at her son to not pass mine the ball. Her son was a really great player and a really great kid and team player so he would pass the ball to mine and kindof coach him along the way...... his mom would chew him out off the court for that. I really appreciated how nice that child was to mine.

I've heard parents call the refs "ret@rded" for calls against their kid.

A group of soccer moms were yelling at their girls to "take out" the girls on my team, be really aggressive, throw elbows and push them down. They tried to provoke the other parents into fighting with them. The girls were 8 - 9 years old. It was like a scene from Jerry Springer when their kid got carded for their behaviour.

Girls lacrosse coaches can be pretty outrageous and turn a fun shade of reddish purple when they are screaming their lungs out at the players.

Drunk parents at a Lax tournament.

My son walked off the field and asked us to take him home.

We absolutely did.

They were screaming at the refs, getting on the field, threw bottles, it was awful.

Holy Cross dad on my daughter's soccer team reamed his daughter because she wanted to go for ice cream.

He called her a whore and other things I will not ever say, over and over again. It took all my might. not to break his dam hotel door room down.

We were at a tournament, he was the only dad that came with the team. We wanted the girls to have some fun and there was a cute ice cream shop right next to the hotel. It was 8 pm.

His beef she would not get enough rest for a tournament. Big whoop. I will never forget this as long as I live. Explaining to my own child our rooms were next to each other was pretty darn awful.

I'm having a little trouble with what's so bad about this one? Why wouldn't you want him to get up and get back into the game? It's hockey, faliing/checking is part of the game, what else should he do?

Uh, the screaming part?

The ref, who was also the tournament organizer, heard her and told her she needed to leave the field. She cursed at him and shoved him before her husband dragged her away.

More funny than terrible, but the most cringe-worthy sports parent story was one I read on DCUM years ago. A poster had been at a youth soccer game and a mom from the opposing team was filming the game on her phone. She disagreed with a call the ref made and walked onto the field to try to show him the video clip that she said proved his call was wrong.

Ooh, I've seen this one in person but it was a Dad
