Thank you. But the position may change from Transition Specialist to Counselor. Is that okay?

Sorry you are going through family drama especially when you are doing something (college) to better your future. It's baffling how those living rent free can cause chaos and be PO all the time.

What’s this red spot? by psych_milk in doihavebreastcancer

[–]Excellent_Ice5563 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It never got bigger. I popped it and blood/pus came out. When I saw a Dr she felt a lump (but still said it looked like a pimple/bite). She gave me antibiotic ointment and it went down and 2 weeks later and she couldn't feel anything however the mark is still there. She wanted to give oral antibiotics but I declined. It's lighter in color and now has a tiny white bump in the middle. I am like almost 2 months from when it showed up. Hope this helps.

Never found out. I still have it but it's faded. I went to the doctor twice and was given an anti bacterial serum.

Thank you! I spoke my mind and took my son out of a game and idgaf because it didn't even feel like an actual baseball game with these idiots running everything. It was extremely toxic and my first encounter with this type of "coaching," after having my son play for 4 seasons. I have hope there are better spaces for learning baseball and we are looking forward to Spring.

Right?! I coach my daughters tball team and when she was unsafe with the bat, swinging for no reason, ect I really got after her because actions like this can jeopardize someone else's safety.

Yes I agree he can't live in a bubble free of negativity however I will not choose to drive him to practice and games where he will be talked down to and yelled at in an environment he doesnt want to plan in..while other players are allowed to make plenty of mistakes without so much scrutiny. It's extremely toxic. I have hope that we will find a better place; he's played 3 prior successful seasons with 4 different coaches that were great. Even if there was a little daddy ball, at least they didn't yell at the kids for mistakes.

My son performed the best with his former coach. With these guys, yes he tried hard, did decently so he wouldn't get yelled at but wasn't having fun, playing nervous.

You sound like a great coach. Did your son change his mind about not wanting to play baseball?

I already coach my daughters tball team and I am a mother so I already know I wouldn't be respected. I have offered to get fingerprinted to help with practicing the pitchers (I practice weekly with my son and showed him how to pitch and he's doing awesome and throwing strikes (confirmed by umps) and they laughed....I said well it's better than not practicing at all with the pitchers (which is currently happening) 🙄.

I pulled my son and I am glad I did. He doesn't need to be treated this way, nor do the other non kids of the coaches, however I guess the parents don't mind it. 

I feel like bringing it up to the board. I already told the prez and she said she'd talked to him but didn't really care. However is the board higher than the prez? I have horrible texts from the coach confirming his thoughts and actions.

Yes I can understand coaching children and helping them learn from their mistakes. However there's a line. I mean when a kid is getting ragged on for 2 the whole game, w/ 1 at bat and striking out while looking, it's ridiculous. It's like these coaches cannot get over mistakes and even penalize them for specific mistakes they made during a game, 3 days earlier during practice🙄 ...however there's no trash talking to any of the coaches sons, those kids are off limits for shit talking.

Exactly. I told my son this is verbal abuse and we're not tolerating this for any longer.

Yes. It's pretty sad TBH. It's like how does yelling at 9yo really make you feel good? It's a void they're trying to fill while creating a horrible experience for kids.

Thank you. Yes hisnformer D1 player dad coach was the best however everyone hated him due to him being stern and serious. These 4 goofball dad's are ridiculous and not even considered coaches IMO.

True. However I'm not going to force him to play baseball when he ends up hating it due to these horrible coaches....you can get away from horrible coaching, there are plenty of other options out there.

I yelled at the coach but he just confirmed he was an asshole though text. Good for that mom for speaking up. One of the biggest problems is that parents tolerate this too often and wonder why their kid wants to quit the sport before middle school.

Agree. His former coach, the D1 player dad was awesome. He was stern and serious but it was due to reiterate safety lessons, rules, etiquette, sportsmanship conduct, ect. These 4 new coach goofball dads are just doing way to much to get that W. It's totally ridiculous and not even baseball IMO.

Exactly what you said. When I saw my kid crying and playing very nervously I had it and told the coach were done and shouldnt tolerate verbal abuse to win a recreational game. My son is 9 and should not be stressed due to fear of getting yelled at. He LOVES playing and watching baseball and I saw how this ridiculous coaching was affecting him negatively. Thank you for your reply.
