In all the instances ya'll have described I think a parent should have gone out on the field. But we had a parent on our 8U rec team this year that was such a drama queen and if her daughter fell and skinned her knee should would rush the field. Her husband would calmly tell her just to wait and see if she was going to be okay, she would then take into cussing him saying "that's my baby". So when we had our first meeting about starting a fall ball team I made sure to let the parents aware that more than likely their child would be hit by a wild pitch at some point and that yes it would sting for a min but over-reacting would only make them afraid of the ball in the future. We'll see how she does this time around.
