Again, imo this is not a good idea ever at the high school level and beyond. It's a recipe for disaster, especially for newer officials at those levels. And personally, at the rec league level i've found that at least an attempt at education works better for me than putting down some daddy-coach that obviously doesn't know much about the game. It might be a ridiculous question to you but it might also be a perfectly reasonable, valid question to the coach. They just don't know any better sometimes.
