Funny...my kids didn't do any of that. DD#1 started every game her junior and senior years. DD#3 started every game from the middle of her sophomore year.
Maybe it was politics...or maybe it was DD"#1's 14 strikeouts a game and .450 batting average, or DD#3' 20 points a game and 10 rebounds a game.
I guess I have been punched. LOL
To the OP, read your post again. You really don't know much at all and are relying on your emotional ties and a second or third hand interpretation of a conversation. Now, where did I put that boxing headgear?
I think most parents are also the most critical of their kid tooSorry, I don't believe a word most parents say about their kid on here. Most normal parents are biased, they are supposed to be, it is their kid and they love them.
In terms of judging how good their kid is in comparison to another player? Not from what I have seen. I also think most parent don't know much about the game..Which is fine. If my kid played field hockey I would just keep my mouth shut because I would have no clue..I think most parents are also the most critical of their kid too
True - it's different when comparing of course! I do wonder sometimes though if other parents really do think their kid can do no wrong.In terms of judging how good their kid is in comparison to another player? Not from what I have seen.

A pitcher who recently left our team was pitching for her new team and gave up 5 runs in an inning on a few walks, a HBP and like 5 hits. The mother apparently starting asking out loud why she was pulled, "she was throwing 60% strikes.."True - it's different when comparing of course!
