That is complete and utter BS. Only an idiot would try to prevent a parent from attending to their child when injured, or worse you, eject the parent for doing so.

Nevada, you totally missed the mark on this one.

**To all the newbies reading this thread, please be aware: NevadaRef can be a great source of information. But in some situations, he goes over the edge and tries to fit case plays and interps into situations where they don't work. In other situations, such as this one, he is completely and totally wrong in his approach. This maybe the poorest game management approach I have ever seen an official on this or any other board express. BTW, I also think it's BS. No way he ever pulls this stunt.
