They're learning from what their parents are doing unfortunately.<br /><br />Tina - I'm fine with parents cheering their kids. Go ahead and be loud. I'll smile at you. But the nastiness and things directed at refs and coaches and all.

I was the quiet one, occasionally cheering, and I sat far away from my husband because his yelling at the refs embarrassed me.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04587300140099806425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494655959430218526.post-81875202543683226542012-10-11T20:27:52.729-05:002012-10-11T20:27:52.729-05:00I am all for the no cell phones... and so right on...I am all for the no cell phones... and so right on with being respectful. ericahttp://www.mommysfabulous.com/parenting/vlogmom-kids-sports-and-loud-parents/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494655959430218526.post-79443975162631796692012-10-11T17:31:29.263-05:002012-10-11T17:31:29.263-05:00I am a loud sideline parent..

I have also been to far too many games where parents are going a tad bit ballistic over their child's performance. <br /><br />The kicker for me is seeing/hearing this at football games..

I've seen it all, and at times it's been ugly. <br /><br />I've also been very active in martial arts, and served as a tournament judge for many years.
