all joking aside i do agree there are those that do take it to the extreme when there kids loses a match, i have always felt if you never lost a wrestling match or made a mistake in a wrestling match then maybe you have the right to demand perfection from your child.

but if you have lost or made a mistake that i believe we all have, then you have no right to yell or abuse your child for making a mistake or losing.

but like i have witnessed a few time a kid coming of the mat throwing there head gear or not shaking the other coaches hand. if my son was to act this way i would smack him in the back of the head, he would pick his head gear up or shake the coaches hand. then we would go have a talk about it away from all to hear. i also do believe the punishment must meet the crime or rule that was broken not overboard.
