I'm sorry, but come on. I was yelled at by coaches, insulted, etc at BHS...was just part of being a kid. Parents coddle their kids too much these days. If it was anything like physical assault or real discrimination, it'd be a different story. But being yelled at by a coach built character for me and my friends. We dealt with it and it made us stronger. But today, parents see their kids being criticized have to rush to their defense...in a few short years when these tennis players are adults, they won 't have their Mommy and Daddy to step in.
