What everybody said. Who cares where the signs come from? If the manager says dad gives signs, that's his problem not the umpires.

If you are looking for a reason, probably on this team, dad is a former pitcher, or more likely catcher, who understands the philosophies of pitching, but actually works a real job instead of the fantasy job of coaching little Johnny to the Runt League World Series. He is probably not on team roster because he can't be at all practices or tourney games. Why waste a coaches slot on someone who isn't going to be there all the time, but can help when he is there.
