So I always find this an interesting discussion. I have been coaching baseball/softball long before my kids were born. Majors baseball. My son is a rec baseball player, daughter is a B level 10u player. I know their strengths and weaknesses better than anyone. Could I be coaching higher level....yes. Would I rather coach my daughter ...yes. Do I hide her weaknesses ...yes. Do I do that with every player...yes.
If you want to coach your kid, just make sure they are playing at the right level and let them shine. If you want to coach a high level ... just be the coach on the field and parent off.
