Or your kid just did it on their on?

Where we're from, this would never happen.

Just curious how the OT would handle it?

My kid's not old enough to understand this yet but I would hope she would have enough sense to tell him no.

Did your coach tell you to start this thread?

Show him every statistic that explains why systemic racism is a myth.

Then give him the choice on whether he wants to continue to look like an idiot.

Well I would hope my kid would talk to me first and at least get educated on what it is he believes is going on. BUT, no coach is going to instruct my child to disrespect the flag of the country that provides freedom. I would instruct my kid that if he wants to protest, or talk about injustice. To get involved in something that actually has potential to create changes.

As am I, but like most things of this sort it may just be starting. And when they realize the ineffectiveness, then it may escalate.

tell my kid that he/she has no obligation to follow this order and then have a serious conversation with the coach

For this to happen my son would have to be coached by a complete dumbass who brainwashes children with his own stupidity and for that to happen my son son would have to go to a terrible ghetto school and for that to happen I'd have to be ghetto which I'm not so this won't happen.

I'd kick the shite out of whichever one had the idea and then kick the shot out of whichever one went with it

I would tell the coach not to use my kid to make a stupid point.

I am a coach, and I talk to a lot of coaches on a daily basis.

Funny thing is this topic has never come up... and keep in mind kids say really stupid shite 24/7!

I don't think people care as much as some of you think.
