Still not getting a "why" out of this.
Why are you letting a catcher know to keep the glove still? You don't (well... shouldn't) care. And as they get older, this behavior can be reacted to negatively by some umpires, as it is taken as showing up the umpire. Not to mention that you should not be coaching the players anyway... what if something else happens and their following of your directions to frame the pitch costs them a possible out somewhere?
