Angry Soccer Mom Accused of Neglect
An angry soccer mom who left her teenage daughter alongside an interstate was ticketed for neglect, Lincoln police said Tuesday. Police spokeswoman Katherine Finnell confirmed this account from police reports:

The 42-year-old Lincoln mom was miffed about her daughter's poor play on Saturday.

On their drive home the girl flubbed the lines her mom had drilled into her on how to improve her game, so the mother slapped her daughter.

The girl told her mom to pull over. The mom did, near the downtown Lincoln exit off Interstate 80. The mom yelled at the girl to get out.

(Lincoln, NB)

"Oh she has a tourney here next week and she's an all star...." and the like but never a word about how she's doing in school and never and i mean never a word about her little brother who my daughter is friends with, he decided he didn't want to play soccer anymore and now he's just kind of fallen off their map.

4. Inflicting pain on our children.
How sad for this child. This is emotional abuse of the first order.

ALANIS MORISSETTE LYRICS

"Perfect"

Sometimes is never quite enough
If you're flawless, then you'll win my love
Don't forget to win first place
Don't forget to keep that smile on your face

Be a good boy
Try a little harder
You've got to measure up
And make me prouder

How long before you screw it up
How many times do I have to tell you to hurry up
With everything I do for you
The least you can do is keep quiet

Be a good girl
You've gotta try a little harder
That simply wasn't good enough
To make us proud

I'll live through you
I'll make you what I never was
If you're the best, then maybe so am I
Compared to him compared to her
I'm doing this for your own damn good
You'll make up for what I blew
What's the problem...why are you crying

Be a good boy
Push a little farther now
That wasn't fast enough
To make us happy
We'll love you just the way you are
If you're perfect

5. Over a freakin' SOCCER game? That's just ridiculous. What is it with some parents and sports?
Win at all costs? I detest that shit! The girl should file abuse charges.

9. On of the Dads at my daughters rec league soccer practices
stands right by the field and makes comments to his daughter the whole time they are practicing. He says things like, "What are you doing, Rachel??" "That was a terrible kick." "Awww...COME ON!!"

The coach has said a few things, but is basically some Dad who has taken on the coaching responsibilities. He also has an assistent that times each kid and makes sure that every single kid plays the same amount of time in the games. Some of the parents make stinky comments about that.

11. Let's leave the Mom on the side of the road without a cell
phone, after dark. See how she likes it.

God, this woman makes me sick.
