If you are for real, you have a bad judgment.
Sure. That’s why they adore me and their parents are switching clubs to join mine.
But go ahead and wear the moral correctness gown, Chad.
You are an idiot.
One false accusation and you are toast
Never drive or be alone 1 on 1 and always include a parent on a text.
Agree with the driving or otherwise being alone 1 on 1 with a kid, but texting is self-protective against false accusations. Unlike a phone call or 1 on 1 conversation, where a kid might claim a coach said something he or she didn't actually say, with texts there's a written record of the entire communication.

Texts are misinterpreted all of the time. Why take a chance?
Texts can be deleted

Not your coach, teacher, priest , uncle, cousin, neighbor, scout leader. Tell them there are people who have bad intentions and anything outside The parameter you set is wrong and needs to be addressed. As parents we cannot stop the intentions of "predators". However we can prepare our kids by teaching them whats out there and how to avoid and take action if these situations ever occur.
Right. Because kids will speak up against a well liked coach that controls your playing time and risk not playing in college. It’s even harder if a parent likes the Coach.
Be a better parent bro. Teach your kids right from wrong teach them when they are young they need to speak up against things.
Wish we were perfect like you and your children. Reality is that damage is done by the time it’s reported to you. Monitoring was the point . Predators first build a trusting relationship before any offense happens. But go ahead and trust your child.
