Just about anyone who has witnessed a youth sport these days has had a bad experience. A survey of 3,300 parents published in an issue of "SportingKid" magazine found that 84% had witnessed "violent parental behavior" toward children, coaches, or an official at kids' sports events. Children should not be victums or witness adults behaving like their child is participating in the "World Series" and their life savings depends on the outcome of the child's perfomance.

Some parents need to RELAX, stop living through their child, and let their child develop their athletic skills, and enjoy the games.
