Ed, I think your biggest mistake was telling him that was enough multiple times. I'm going to tell youth coaches only once, then I'm flagging. I would not have told him enough after the first flag, if hes not smart enough to shutup after the first flag then he will be tossed. I would have immeditely flagged when he said "See what you did."

I have very little tolerance for youth coaches. They just don't know when to stop.
My tolerance for youth coaches ended many years ago when I stopped doing those games.
Ya know, I get so sick and tired of guys that think they're "too good" to work these lower level games. You wonder why kids in HS are getting more and more out of line all the time. It's because these youth games are left to the 1st-3rd year officials who really don't know how to handle them, and, like the original poster, they give too much leeway. Throw the damn flags for cryin out loud, and give some deserving coaches/players an early shower a time or two. That alone will go a long way in cleaning up some of this $hit!!
Maybe it has to do with the fact that officials don't want to work that crap. It isn't worth their time to be harassed, why put up with that crap?
