    Parents Help me find the right words

    @MuggleMom haha I love your humour. We do this by saying naughty things about the former coach. It always works. I like the "lucky" idea. You are so right. He IS lucky he is away from it all and they are all still in it. Xxx

    Parents Is coach a bully? Should I get my son out of there?

    Hi. An added problem is that his HC is his girlfriend and they do a good cop-bad cop kind of thing. Coach freezes out my son to the point that he isn't.
