Never said I was a family member. But thank you for giving the families of our youth players the wise old words of shmmee. I've jotted down the "correct approach" to pass along at their next training session
You should. This is basic advice for both being on the internet and being mildly famous. Do you think I went searching RateMyTeacher when I was a teacher? And if I did what response from the kids would I have got if someone had then gone into the comments?
Look up the Streisand Effect, that’s basically what’s happened on this thread. By intervening you’ve made a mildly amusing forgettable thread into something about the player.
We’ve had young players family on here before and it never works out well for the lad. If you care for him, your best best if to ignore comments and help him work out how to be mildly famous in the internet age. You ain’t gonna stop anonymous internet people from making jokes related to a five minute debut, and you certainly ain’t gonna stop them when it’s something serious like a missed penalty or bad game. Best to learn how best to deal.
