Ever have a problem with a coach picking on your child?

I had an issue with dance teachers picking on my son and allowing other kids to pick on him so we pulled him from dance. I think the worst part was my son was being bullied, the teacher allowed it and the PARENTS said my son was the one bullying

Yeah....I'm the coach. Haha. No, I don't pick on kids and none of the girls' soccer coaches ever picked on them. -
No. My DH coaches most of my kids' sports, and he tends to expect more from them then he does the other kids. Sometimes I feel like it's unfair, but I'm okay with it because they always seem to rise to the challange :)

I have coached five years for youth soccer and my husband coaches youth wrestling. We have been involved in quite a few different sports and 95% of the coaches were amazing! Just recently we watched a coach belittle his four year old boy in front of an entire gym of wrestlers. Eventhough it wasn't MY son, I told my husband, "Either you go stop him or I will!" Luckily my husband intervened but it was heart wrenching to watch. I think as parents, its our duty to keep an eye on what goes on with all the kiddos.
