So now you have me confused. Why should a mother have to hide an email from her daughter about the agenda for a hockey meeting? The mother wasn't the one to write the agenda, why is she to blame? If this had been your daughter and she found the agenda or asked you what the meeting was about, would you lie to her? And the grandmother was within her rights to get the media involved, don't piss off a little child's grandma or you'll pay the price. The newspaper did exactly what newspapers do, took a story and ran with it. It's not the newspaper's fault that Atis threw them a big meatball. The person to blame, and the only person who should get the blame is Atis. One last thing, Atis is the only person making the claims about the issue with changing in the locker room and the girl's ability to play. No one else has stepped up and supported this guy's claims. That should make you wonder just a bit how valid his argument really is.
because a mother is there to protect their child and filter these type of things. the adults should do the fighting, it's not up to the child. by letting her read the letter all it's done is made her sad and quit the team. grandmother went to the media that's fine, but think about how the child would feel if on her new teammates/opponents read the article and then gossip or chirp about how crappy she is if she's not very good. these are kids, they're not going to debate about it like adults. and ofcourse nobody is going to support this, it's basically putting up a big target for being called a sexist, and getting hatemails. not supporting George here, but it's blown way out of proportion.
