I agree mommy's and daddy's are not coaches. And should not try to be. That should be left up to the coaches on the field. Myself I am a coal miner not a coach. I know how to mine coal not coach football. It makes me sick listening to other coal mining dads in the stands trying to coach from up there. Every time something goes wrong the coach is blamed, and he should of done this or that. Then when something works the kids get all the praise, not the coach. Come on guys you are not a coach! You are living in a dream world. However, mommy's and daddys should be coaches off the field and support their kids as well as the coachs. But, they should also make sure that their kids are not mistreated by coaches. There is a difference between demanding discipline and blatantly cussing a kid and their family members. This kind of action will destroy a program quicker than anything. I am not saying that coaches should not shout at kids, however, there is a right way and wrong way to do this. I am willing to bet that kids will perform better for a coach that is respected rather than one that is despised.
