Steve is 100% set that what she did was wrong. I know how I grew up it was super common for parents to do this. What do you think?

XO Jenny and Steve’s Daily Dilemma

 

“My son is 12 and plays on his junior high’s basketball team. He had a game last Friday. The gym was packed and noisy because it was a tight game. One of his opponents was shooting a free throw when I yelled out ‘MISS’. The kid clanged the ball off the rim. Some of the parents started yelling and talking trash to me. They said it was wrong that I yelled out and caused the opposing player to miss. I disagree. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with showing my support and yelling out. They did because the kid is 12. That’s what being a fan is all about. They continued trash talking and insulting me even after the game and into the parking lot. Did I do anything wrong? The parents said I displayed poor sportsmanship”
