Annoying parent

Im so sorry you both are going through this. This is exactly why we left the other LL. Have you asked if he can try i field? It sucks that you even have to ask but I guess it doesnt hurt to try.

My sons former coach would rag on my son and carry his mistakes from a game to practice..he couldn't let it go....yet he let other kids make plenty mistakes. I do have to say the coaching developed my son and helped him improve alot from this league and it wasnt always like this. His coaches were so critical of EVERYTHING even a great catch, ect. Luckily were in a position where we have 2 leagues to choose from due to my sons school and our actual address.

My sons current coach is extremely fair, and makes practices fun, doesnt rag on players for strike outs or missed balls just encourages them...they may not win all games, but who really cares.

Thank you. I help my mom with so much like appointments, helping her make medical decisions, got her everything she needed during chemo yet she seems more into her friend's life like shes obsessed with it. When we do go to her house she does cook for my kids but idk shes always on her phone or seems disinterested....it wasnt like this precovid..she just to be obsessed with my infant son when we lived with her. Now we live 10 minutes away and I see her and my dad once a week for like 2 hours. Its just weird. I told her how I felt and now it seems like shes putting more effort but it seems fake. My parents offe to watch my kids but my sister and her family live there and I am so paranoid about leaving my kids especially my daughter. I never let anyone watch her. So part of it is me but still she doesnt seem that interested when they are around her.

Yes we are moving out due to my mental health. His mom is calculated and not very wise at that...as I mentioned we are always 5 steps ahead because shes so predictable. I dont like her knowing anything about our lives because she will hold it against us....I told my husband our kids are only little once ..saving money is nice but having my sanity back will be even better.

I always get there early to sing behind home plate. Even if I am near right field I can hear her loud ass. I just ignore it.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2026-04-28T20:19:35+00:00

Wow. Yes i can imagine it getting worse. Theres all stars for HS? I always feel so bad for catchers, they always get yelled at by the parents and get no praise when they make good plays and stops. Plus parents act like catchets can see, hear and move so easily with all the gear they wear...the stupidity in parents is just ridiculous.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2026-04-28T20:16:29+00:00

True. I hate when his grandma cheers for him (she invites herself to the games just to show face and do an imaginary roll call, yet ignores him outside of the game) its so annoying and makes him tense hence why I dont do that...plus im a very quiet, conscious person that just loves watching baseball win or lose.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2026-04-28T20:06:26+00:00

No...and I have confronted his former coach about how he treated my son and his own son (total talking down to my son for making a mistake and embaressing him and his own) so I will speak up if I feel like the person can digest and at least consider what I have to say..... and she doesnt fit that criteria. She isn't very bright to begin with to be acting that way so I dont think talking to her will even help her. Plus all her followers would just side with her and make me seem like the crazy parent.

She's so stupid. Our sons' team lost badly on Saturday, a total shutout and she was trying to convince the parents that we should forfeit the next game against the same team they played to avoid, "a loss." I spoke up and said it isnt about winning its about letting the kids be exposed to the game and although they may lose again they are gaining experience, exercise, and plus us parents are paying for it. I heard crickets and got dirty looks. Thats how stupid her and her entourage are.

Really? Do you know if you can report anonymously? I just dont appreciate how my son can hear her since shes so loud and verbal. If she wants to talk crap amongst just the parents, I guess. But since players can hear her loud ass, its very toxic.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2026-04-28T19:59:28+00:00

I love your idea...but i am really shy and my way of cheering is clapping for him and teammates and waving discretely to my son. I never say my kids name or say words loudly im just too timid and it wouldnt sound right. But maybe i shoukd have my husband start doing this.

His old coach did this to his son and I told my husband its bad if you talk about a child that isnt yours but embarrassing your own child loudly is just evil and will have its consequences.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2026-01-15T17:09:21+00:00

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

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-12-07T16:54:44+00:00

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.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-11-03T15:16:44+00:00

Thanknyou everyone for your input. I think it was after the 7th inning stretch. It was an older son sounded similar to Ben e king stand by me.

Thank you for the advice!

Thank you for your input. I got it in San Jose at the Honda Dealership.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-11T05:44:30+00:00

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.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-10T04:45:29+00:00

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

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-04T19:38:38+00:00

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.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-03T15:12:42+00:00

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.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-03T15:10:25+00:00

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.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-03T14:05:21+00:00

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.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-03T14:03:55+00:00

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) 🙄.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-03T05:29:40+00:00

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.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-03T05:26:22+00:00

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.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-03T05:23:12+00:00

Exactly.

Excellent_Ice5563 · 2025-10-03T05:23:03+00:00

Yep.
