I think all of the moms should open their own gyms, and start coaching 2 or 3 teams. I have a feeling this laundry list of perfection wouldn't last too long.

Oh I don't know...you gotta see my cp's impression. She DOES go to school in a city school in Chicago...so she gets it honestly. And she is the biggest Anjelah Johnson fan on the planet. :D
Haha... Anjelah Johnson is in our daily vocab!!! Love It!!!
Remember you are paying for a service, nothing more. If you don't like the quality of your service then take your business elsewhere.1. Remember that I'm paying you, not the other way around

I stated this in another post "if you look for a negative you are going to find one in EVERYTHING!" Either this board has a lot of angry people, or people that just think they can do it better. Parents sure seem to think they can run a gym better or coach a team better. But the joke is on them because they sure pay a lot of money to think that way! We LOVE our coaches appreciate all they do. Our level 1 choaches cheer just as loud for their teams as the 3's and 4's. Some parents are so quick to complain about coaches being too strict, to hard on the kids, etc, etc etc, but if coaches let their kids run all over and not work during practice they would be the first to complain when their Cp's team is not doing well and not winning. This is supposed to be a fun activity for kids not a life or death situation.
wow- I have been reading along both threads- and I am an allstar paying mom and I not only run an entire youth league- I coach 2 teams for FREE and I feel that both sides have valid points- however for free I strive to give these kids the best job I can give because it directly reflects ME! These kids have confidence and know that there are no favorites- yes it can be done- I dont allow parents to tell me how to run my program BUT I listen to their complaints, comments, ideas on my time. They call me, text me, email whenever and I do my best to get right back to them.I think all of the moms should open their own gyms, and start coaching 2 or 3 teams.

ANNDDDDD,
I make you nail shine like diamond in sky
<sigh> You are sooooooo one of my favorite posters. usually. But here goes...
"laundry list of perfection"? I wish everyone would understand that I started this thread as a reply to the other one. Because I didn't want to hijack that one with it - I figured everyone would just say "Start your own thread if you want to tell your side" so I did. It's not a laundry list of perfection - it's a response to the page long list of ways we can be "less annoying".
I'm asking for perfection if I ask you not to help other kids during my $60/hour private???
It's perfection if I want you to treat your Mini 1's that spend the same thousands of dollars like valuable athletes as much as you do your Senior 5's?
It's perfection if I ask you not to stuff your face with pizza in front of my starving kid who got out of school at 3:00, hopped on an hour long train ride to my job, and hopped in the car for another hour, changed her clothes and put her hair up in the car only to be basically pushed out of the moving car in the parking lot so she isn't late to practice and maybe during all that she might have been lucky enough to scarf down an apple???
I'll admit that parts of the thread have taken a turn towards "coach bashing" but I would hardly say we're asking for perfection. I'm just asking for coaches to not tell me to do things on "their schedule" because they're "VERY busy and trying to have a life". I LIVE MY LIFE ON YOUR SCHEDULE - even my JOB is scheduled around practice.
So really, if once in awhile i end up bothering you at an inconvenient time, please remember that I'm human - and I am also busy trying to make sure that come he!! or highwater, my kids are going to be at that gym on time, with their tuition paid. I can only dream of "having a life" - maybe you can tell me what that's like.
I have to agree with this one! I really never eat when kids and parents are in the gym....but on those days where you have been at the gym all day long...you have to eat. we as coaches need to have energy to spot your children.So happy I am only guilty of #3, sorry but I gotta eat sometime (when you own the gym, been there all day and hadn't seen daylight my stomach punches me and says eat) LOL... A lot of our parents get together and go eat during practice, then come back for the last hour of practice to watch!
