actually, most of my parents are pretty good (but this is rec, not Travel, so not so much worried about PT). could always use more help, but overall I have been blessed for the most part.. I had one who him and his son during practice at local HS one day combed the bushes on the border of the field for balls, proudly presented me with about a dozen or so balls for my team. hated to tell them i could not use them (they were 12s, using 11s in our 10u division), but I did pass them on to my older DDs coach, and thanked him.
always one or two crazies though. like the parent a couple of years ago who when I sent her daughter to her to remove her earrings prior to game, told her it was fine to leave them in (gotta deal with her again this year, not on my team, her older DD plays with my older DD this year). or the parents who insisted their 7 yr old and 5 yr old play together on coach pitch, anytime 5 yo was sitting in dugout (I had 14), she filled all the players helmets with sand. was not ready for coach pitch.
will I be banned from DFP because I complimented parents?
