I'm almost at this stage with my son too. Just remember, you're not a cheering party anymore. There WILL be close plays - it's the nature of the game. And on all of those - every single one --- half of the stands will momentarily hate your son. If he's unfortunate enough to have several close ones go against one team in a row (and this WILL happen), that side's going to get loud. Fight the urge to defend him - you truly have no idea how these already angry people will react. Many just want to vent, but some want more. Your son has a fence between him and these idiots. You do not. Stay above it.
