I think the parents of the other kids in Ethan's soccer team are generally okay, but one Dad in particular always criticises his son in front of others. Yesterday he said (after his son missed a goal) "You kicked it too wide! You're walking home!" ... it was a "JOKE" but the kid wasn't laughing. And nor was I. Poor fella! He's only 5 years old, sheesh!Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17333898332336018736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27598861.post-39857882471877370552008-05-03T23:06:00.000-05:002008-05-03T23:06:00.000-05:00"Let's remember that we should all be freaking gra..."Let's remember that we should all be freaking grateful that our kids are able to run and jump and play."
