Just wanted to see the overall consensus on this topic? is it normal? part of soccer world? passive aggressive parent bullying? racism? jealousy? to be expected on any team?
I've heard parents make some not so nice comments about players on the team. Thankfully none of them have been race-based. I'm also a referee and when I'm AR, you hear alot of things that make you cringe.
Aside from that in the past there have been certain parents that I didn't trust to take my dd anywhere because I felt they were the types to try and undermine her. It's a real shame.
My daughter had a few racist remarks said to her by the opposing team she played a few games this year...
I guess it’s just the climate we’re in.. kind sad tho
I kinda wonder where a 13-14 year ol girl would learn the terms (wetback,spic,beaner). My wife and I had the talk about people being different. Thankfully my daughter understands that this world is full of bigotry and it’s not all butterflies and rainbows.oh it happens alot... it's disgusting...

It’s no place for me to say anything really. Which is wrong too. All I can do is teach my kids what’s right.They learn it from their parents. what would you do if it's a parent on your kid's team that has said some passive aggressive racist remarks? take it up with the coach? (doubt he will do anything) leave the team?

I was just trying to stay in the spirit of the original post.
sorry, but I choose not to get detailed about it .. passive aggressive means not direct. indirect racist, jealous mean comments. racism is not direct always these days, it's subtle.
believe me if i told you the stories you would be appalled that these kind of things exist these days, let alone directed at kids
So far you have said nothing, so don't expect any meaningful responses. My son has been called a girl and a "chink" (my wife is Filipina). Is that the sort of thing you were looking for?
from the parents on his team?
