Why worry about something that has nothing to do with your part of the game? Why worry about the poor kid being "abused"? It sounds to me like he wasn't being abused, he was being benched, which happens on occasion in the game of basketball. Maybe the kid needed to have his butt chewed. It sounds suspiciously as though the player didn't understand his role. The coach decides who is going to be on the floor. The player plays. On the other hand, maybe the coach was a jerk. He can be a jerk all he wants to his players. If it's that bad maybe mom and dad need to get the kid on a different team or find a new coach. It isn't my business as an official until it is directed at me or my partners. If you're that worried about how a player feels...go coach and do it better than the one you talked about in the OP.
