The bolded is why those parents talk about every.single. thing.
It gets better with time. By 16u everyone is talking amongst themselves in the stands, barely noticing the game. lol....... A little hyperbole but you get the idea. By then everyone realizes what the deal is, plus, a lot of those 10 and 12u parental headaches are no longer around because they have driven their daughters out of the sport with their helicoptering.
Y'all say this, I believe it. Now we just gotta get there. But at the same time I don't want this going any faster than it is.
