I have a question for all of the youth hockey coaches and youth hockey directors out there:
Are really, really, really, difficult parents…of really, really good hockey players…worth the aggravation?
Are they worth the aggravation of the consistent negativity around the rink and around the parent group? Are they worth the aggravation of the consistent badgering of “what have you done for me and what have you done for my kid lately?
The me me me mentality.
I feel like a lot of coaches and hockey directors are hesitant to step in and have some conflict with those parents for fear that they're going to leave and go to another organization.
For me:
Don't let the door hit your behind on the way out.
Hockey is all about culture and the experience of your kids and your families. And there’s nothing that kills that culture more than toxic, negative parents.
So…serious question. If you have difficult parents - are they worth the aggravation?

One more thing re: the portal. For some of these players, college might be the first time they spend 4 consecutive seasons on one team. Youth hockey can be a disaster. Kids play on 4 or 5 different teams in 6 years. Then we expect them to play at the same school 4 in a row?
In a lot of ways, the portal is just mirroring youth hockey. Listen to some parents who bounce their kids around to a new program every year. It's always the coach, or the team, or the rink, or this kid on his line, or whatever.
For a lot of these players, they're just doing the same thing they've always done. 1-2 years and then bounce somewhere else.
