Unfortunately that may be a function not so much of learning to behave, but how much they care. The more they care, the more of them will be there, and, there being a fixed percentage of bad sports in any crowd, the more bad sports will be in attendance. As the kids age, the parents stop turning out. When they get up to a certain age, the crowds may increase from people who care more about the game than they do about the players, which probably diminishes the fraction of bad sports.
