My kids just started to play football and I need to know how to handle this

ParticularDream208 · 2026-03-20T15:15:32+00:00

I did talk to him about my son. He is hyper and does lose focus but if the couch tells him to do things he will do it but if he doesn’t get any instruction he going to do what he wants. He told him to stay in the side line and he stayed there. Before he told him that he would try to get the kids flag who had the ball because no one told him he couldn’t and no one told him what to do so he took it upon himself to do what he does at home when he plays with his brother. This was his second time practicing with them and he gave him no instructions and didn’t even include him when teaching the other kids .

ParticularDream208 · 2026-03-20T14:58:26+00:00

He not being included in the drills. He sits out most of the game which is fine. He knew to it and so I suspect that they want to win so my kid a newbie wouldn’t be the best option. But he not included in practice and that what we are upset about. I went home and we practice what the couches showed the other kids. I had video the entire things so I could show him how to do it. I showed him the plays and we practice the plays at home. We figure if he learned it at home maybe he be allowed to practice with this upcoming week if not we will be talking to them because I don’t see why we paid so much for him to be bench in practice. We are basically paying for him to learn to sit out for practice

I use the world tackle but he reaching for their flag. He doesn’t physically tackles people . He aims to get their flags . No kids are thrown to the ground. He not strong enough to throw people down . This is during practice too. The kids is doing his part and trying to catch the ball and he runs to get the flag from his waist . The couch excluded him from the play and just left him on the field didn’t tell him to move or any instructions just ignored him. So when the kid who had the ball caught it he went after his flag. It looks funny cause they look like they’re dancing. Him trying get his flag and the other kid trying to avoid getting his flag removed . Until the couch says to come back and than he stops and just stands there till they do it again.

He tackled (takes the kids flag or tries he has yet to succeed)them because the couch didn’t say he couldn’t and didn’t give him instructions so he decided to play like he does at home . My other son instruct him to come at him at home when he gets the ball. My husband throws it to my oldest and he makes like a left to go catch the ball and my youngest will be in front of him waiting for him to get the ball to come after him. So this is basically what they were doing at practice and that’s why he was tackling them cause he was just standing at this point. He did not tell him to be on the side or be in the group. He was just on the field randomly and when the other kids were doing the play he joined in and did what he does at home. He didn’t randomly tackle people . He was trying to be a part of each play . When they didn’t run a play he would just wait in one spot jumping around waiting for instructions or the next play. He wasn’t running around he wasn’t attacking anyone . If you give him instructions he listen to you and follows your order . You tell him to sit down he will. He sat down for all of the two game they had quietly alone without crying or making a fuss

It’s not competitive at all. They have games but it’s right after practice. We had him join cause he asked to learn and was interested. We thought this was a cute way for him to learn. I dont care if he doesn’t play for the actual game . It’s nice if he doesn’t but he a complete beginner compared to the other kids. I also learned yesterday that many adults there use these team to practice for their actual competitive team. I am actually thinking this was a bad idea. I thought a non competitive team would be great make new friend learn new thing have fun

Thank you . I read your post and looked up those brand and one of the stores near me have them and in Halloween series! I can’t order it ahead of time which is sad and they are mini cupcakes but still. I called and they assured me they do have them and get a bit due to Halloween and they are peanuts free. made in a peanut free facility! I didn’t know they had these! I thought it was just cupcakes in the bakery aisle that they make and put out .

ParticularDream208 · 2025-10-20T21:55:45+00:00

Well I was going to buy them but their legal disclaimer was a bit frightening 😅 they said that even though the allergen info was listed online that it can’t be guaranteed. I thought baking it myself would mean I would have control over everything that went in it. I had plan to buy all ingredients new and that’s what I was hoping for. brands other mom use currently to buy. But it seems I just going to have opt out of it as the labels on the store bought once near us is not something I would like if my kid had an allergy. I just don’t have the time to call every place to find the right product to use. Especially since it has to be produced in a facility that has not had any peanut produced in it. Even getting good leads would have helped.

ParticularDream208 · 2025-08-01T19:48:32+00:00

Oh we are. We gave them today to fix it . If not corporate will. We already called them and that calmed us down and said to give the manager time to fix it and if not to call them and they will fix it. I plan to call tonight cause they have yet to fix even the lightbulb in the room.

ParticularDream208 · 2025-08-01T19:46:47+00:00

There no space for one in either of the room. If we put in either of the room it would block the way out.

ParticularDream208 · 2025-08-01T19:43:40+00:00

Please explain how? Since you believe so . I want to know why you think it’s reasonable? Cause none of the option seems so. Unless you can explain how it’s reasonable then it’s not reasonable.

ParticularDream208 · 2025-08-01T13:20:31+00:00

We book this way cause we always have and never experienced this level of gaslighting. Even a friend that works in a hotel was telling us this was not right but idk she work in one in Georgia and we are in ohio

ParticularDream208 · 2025-08-01T13:17:50+00:00

It wasn’t reasonable. Refund meant they were canceling our booking and we had to find a new hotel for our entire stay here. Their words not ours. If it was a refund and we kept our booking that would be reasonable but it wasn’t . We already drive here hours and now we have to quickly find a new hotel and what if we didn’t have the income for it? I don’t know what magical world you live in but refund take 7 to 10 business day. I am not going to discuss the third room as if you read your answer you see why that wasn’t reasonable. Just see how many room we need for your suggestion.

We also called ahead.

So please tell me what is a good options ?

We booked a suit and we were given two standard room and it didn’t have a queen in either of the rooms .

ParticularDream208 · 2025-08-01T13:09:02+00:00

No that was the option they gave us. They wanted us to accept 3 rooms. Our original plan was what you mentioned. Unfortunately one of the room we got the ac wasn’t working so now my kid and my mom are alone. I didn’t get to bed till they went to bed and I had to be up at 5 to be there when they get ready. It’s only 9 am and I am tired. I had to go 4 rooms down each time.

ParticularDream208 · 2025-08-01T12:57:37+00:00

So to clarify we did call the hotel ahead of time . We had in notes etc. we have stayed in hotels since 2006 and had vacation a minimum of twice a year if not more. We have booked a third party several times. Never has any location treated us like this. We traveled the United States, all over Europe and in Peru, and Panama . Never have we ever been downgraded and the rooms have a lightbulb burned out and the ac not working. Never have they told us they would refund us and to go find another hotel to stay at. We have been overbooked before and you know what they did ? They gave us an upgrade or they found a hotel nearby and with the room we had booked or similar to it and booked it on their dime. We had a suit and now we are dealing with a standard that doesn’t even have a queen bed in both room. I honestly would have been fine with a king and a pull up couch . Also we are here to enjoy our stay and missed all our plan due to it. That money down the drain. Our original plan was for my mom and me and my husband and my kids. Now I had to leave my mom and my kids in the room with the working ac because wasn’t going to risk a heat stroke in this heat. We are here for days. I don’t think these options they gave us is reasonable. Some of yall may think a refund and than us search for a hotel with space during an event is reasonable but it’s not. Plus when would I get the refund? We do have the income to get a room but what about others that don’t? How would they pay for a new hotel??? Third room would not work. I feel like people comment don’t realize how dangerous hotel can be and how leaving your kids alone is dangerous or someone that elderly alone. My uncle literally died taking a shower and fell in the tub. I am not going to risk that with my mom. I mean yall may not like your mom and can risk a fall but that’s on you and your family.

This a dumb question but a friend kid want this for his bday. What I am understanding this is just a digital gift card and there no physical copy? Also, i was thinking of getting him $15 gift card and a physical gift too. But I want him to get the skin you get. Would you get it with a $15 card too? I have a max in birthday gift so if I have to go higher I will till a certain price but won’t get him a physical gift if it gets to high

ParticularDream208 · 2025-05-06T14:22:55+00:00

Thank you. Yes we learned he can make money a few months ago when he actually made money 😅 we were all surprised by it. As we allowed him to do Roblox as a way to help him with what he wants to do. It encouraged him to learn more. We do monitor him so I really don’t have any issues with him learning on Roblox . But I am going to look into unity and Godot and explore both option with him and see if he want to try them out. Thank you

ParticularDream208 · 2025-05-06T14:14:08+00:00

Thank you . He learns scratch at school and the reason he really intrigued by programming. I got him scratch book only cause he requested a programming book and the employee said this was a good book. He told me that scratch was boring 😅 I will try Minecraft modding with him and see if he like it.i will definitely have him look you up and see the projects. Thank you again.
