Parents have that monster in them just waiting to get out, regardless of what year you allow college contact of their kids. Personally I would LOVE to see parents banned from attending grade school aged sports. ( I know it will never happen, nor should it) Parents/relatives are the WORST part of little league, pop warner, etc. etc.

as I've related before...my oldest son played ball (all state catcher) and hon mention QB. He's a coach now...I coached him. I've seen it (the disgusting behavior) at all levels (as is he now)...and it's horrible, and directly responsible for the umpire/referee shortage across the nation right now. I would say the good healthy perspective parents are in the minority today (at least that's what it seems like)...the loud mouthed, know it all, and verbally abusive "my little johnny is an athletic gift from god" parents are what we see most often. It's very sad, and embarrasses the athletes and takes away from their experience.

I've seen lots of parents with good, healthy perspective. Some don't have it though. I think modeling good behavior and healthy outlooks are vital.
