I realize this is 4 pages old already, but that's what happens when you don't get on here all day.

From a coach's perspective, the first time I yelled at a player this season was midway through a 10 game schedule, with 6th graders. A player thought he was fouled, and did the classic raise your hands, look at the ref move. There was a TO right after that, and I ripped into the kid. He didn't get a T, but I wish he did. This is almost identical to the OP, and IMO, if you let a younger kid get away with this, all it does is encourage it in the future. By the way, the only comments I got from parents afterwards were saying that they liked to see me get into the kid for this, so I think that is a good sign.
