When I started playing FP, my father was an umpire. I hated it when he was working my games. I was always out on first. Mostly for not walking the 1-meter line after a bunt (then my best weapon)...
He must have been over compensating. Both my brother and I in one team, and everybody knowing he's the father. For me it was horrible.
Now I'am the umpire (never worked together with my dad, and I think I'm glad with that..) and have a son (almost 2 years ols). I know now this; I might be his coach, but will never ever be his umpire!
