When I read Rick Wolff’s article on his great blog Ask Coach Wolff about the soccer movie Bad Parents, I knew I had to hop over to the website www.badparents.com and check it out. The movie is about a suburban U8 girls club soccer team and its badly behaved parents. Chaos ensues over splitting the girls into the A and B team, playing time and screaming from the sidelines. Amazing how many of those parents I recognize!
You must watch the preview and check out lines like this one… “You guys are like tiny, shiny diamonds but unfortunately some of you are going to need to be cut.” I laughed out loud in front of my laptop and then sent the link to all my friends. Supposedly the movie is out in limited release, but will have a broader distribution in March. I can’t wait! It doesn’t look appropriate for kids, so I’m thinking a team parents’ night out is in order.
