Everyone knows ages 10-14 are the most important for developing young football players.

Reality shows are staged so if you take coaches telling 9 yr. olds to take the heads off other 9 y.o
seriously, take your meds.

It creates a toughness needed to be a football player. I'm sure you make sure your kids and their friends wear tube sox around their waists when they play football you prissy little bitch

Say it to my FACE!!

That show is everything that's wrong with parenting.

Everything? Disagree. Not even close.

Agree that these people go way overboard, especially for the age of the kids, but when I played as a teen, this isn't too far off what it was like. Junction boys type stuff was pretty normal.

Far from being "everything" that's wrong with parenting. I would argue that these boys have a better than average chance at growing up to become successful adults.

There's a balance between being a participation ribbon parent and an overbearing asshole who is borderline inflicting child abuse on a 10 year old.

A lot of pee wee football players who go through this probably have emotional issues related to being under such heavy pressure and a need to prove something to their parents.

Yes, there is a balance, and maybe some end up with performance issues. Just like a lot of parents who push their kids to be the best academically, musically, or at whatever. Like stories of the kid who is forced to practice piano 10 hours a day until they cry. Nothing new.

Nothing like getting cigarettes put out on their backs why getting raped by their mom's meth addicted boyfriend.

Again, on the scale of "everything" that is wrong with parenting, this isn't near the top.

Maybe parenting isn't in your wheelhouse.

That's because CollegeDoog lacks real world experience even though he has an opinion on everything including things he has no clue about.

Yes yelling at 10 year olds isn't good but Damone is right. When you say "everything" gotta disagree.

What about the parents who never see their kids? The parents who left when they were infants? the parents who beat their kids physically? The drug addict parents? Parents who are single home parents working 2 jobs so kid is basically on their own? Parents who put their kids in dangerous situations like dating a child rapist?

I could go on and on. Overbearing parent in a sporting event? That isn't ideal but far from the other shit I just listed.

Okay. It's everything wrong with youth sports. It obviously secondary to the things you listed. Did you see my post about hyperbole?

No kid should be subjected to that kind of pressure selfishly placed upon them by a parent.

I've seen first hand what can happen to kids who have to live with that pressure. Most of them end up hating the sport.

And having spent years on one of the best select baseball teams in Washington (age 9-17), playing AAU basketball, and High School Football, competitive youth sports are up my alley.

As a kid, and speaking for a lot of other kids, parents sometimes underestimate the amount of pressure they can put on us. It's unhealthy.

Just trying to make an honest post. If you want to call me a pussy I can take it, but I think the real pussies and cowards are the shithead parents who do this to their kids for their own selfish reasons.

I agree that these guys are overboard for 10 year olds. But it's football and shouldn't be like soccer where they are having freindles and being told what an awesome job they are doing by just running around in a group.

There is an appropriate way to coach 10 year olds which is different than 13 year olds which is different that 18 year olds. But at no time should dealing with adversity and picking yourself up off the ground when your knocked on your ass and being taught to hit the other guy harder than he hits you not be part of coaching football.

I don't think a friendly match is what you what think it is.
