Or a parent that is trying to teach their kid a lesson that the kid can't slack off in school or his participation in extracurricular will not happen.


I agree to a point.

1. school just fricking started for most of these kids therefore grades shouldn't affected at this point.

2. randomly pulling a kid from a game without giving the coach a warning that the kid is struggling is frustrating. The coach can help back the parents up if he/she knows there is a problem.

True. But they may be trying to nip a bad study habit from previous years in the bud very quickly.

Agreed. I'm just stating that it may not be all "shitty parenting" as made out to be.
