No matter what sport you play or what grade your child is in, they are going to get criticized as long as they are on a field or court playing. It's just the nature of the beast. I've been criticized many times in my life while playing sports and I deserved it. It only makes you realize exactly what you need to get better at. As a parent, the best advice I can give you is to just let it roll off your sleeve. I'm not saying bashing a player is the right thing to do, but when you're on an anonymous message board, there are always going to be downers and it does no good to get on here and try to defend a child. It's basically just pointless and in most cases makes things worse for the kid because "his mommy and daddy had to get on here to defend him because he can't take care of himself". I know I wouldn't want my parents on here taking up for me. I'm a big boy and I can handle it.
