Sometimes. However, this year we had a shortage of officials during my daughter's end of the seaon tournament and I was called in to officiate their championship game. My daughter, who is a senior, fouled out of the game and I called every one of her fouls. She got applause as she left the floor and I got hassled (in a good way) afterwards by some of the fans. Actually may daughter had never fouled out of a game before so she kind of went out "in a blaze of glory." The fact that people knew she was my daughter made it that much more fun. (My wife, however, took issue with one of the fouls I called on our daughter. We're still working it out.
