Soccer Mom Syndrome: Highly Contagious

After my recent experiences on the sidelines of a 4 & 5 year-olds soccer practice/why-the-hell-did-I-actually-pay-money-for-this/match/game, I found this site to be rather amusing:

The plague of the side lines is of course the parents who like to play the 'offspring comparison' game; a truly annoying sport where one earns points for constantly trying to one-up their opponent; a masquerade that is mystifyingly easy to be sucked into. The cost of this situation would be totally worth it if my child were actually enjoying himself; the ideal situation being coaches who actually coached and my kid learning something about soccer besides how to hate the game that I was sorta hoping he would like...even if by coercion... Sigh.
