opppss sorry for it being in the wrong area.


It was in private in a locker room away from the other team. Except for the coaches wife of the other team that i found out later had her ear to the door listening in. After talking to all most all the parents. I cant find one that said they called. The letter i got from the head of the program said two parents called.

The funny thing is I dont curse at all. The word ass or hell is the worst i say.

It was also a motivator for our next game. Which is a playoff game againist the same team. These kids are 12 and 13 years old. I mean they are almost in high school.

My son is part of the team is the youngest by 3 years.

Thank you for all the wonderfull responses.

Sounds to me like you have a busy-body (?) with nothing better to do with her time than stir up trouble! I would let it go... heck if it were me I would make sure that I made some very odd remarks (just don't swear in them) when ever she was within earshot... that way she could really wonder what is going on!

as a former high school teacher i do not believe that it is inappropiate when used in the contex that it was.

My only problem with what you did is that it may go agains someone else teaching. If an other parent is trying to change a behavor and you use words that are against what they are teaching THEIR childern you are undermining their authority. When in a position of authority you must act accordingly.

Well interesting thing today. The kids in the school next door were doing phy ed and the teacher shouted. "Run faster you little shits!' I heard it clear as a bell.

I suspect there are school political overtones at work here.
