When my children are older and are playing basketball, I might not even sit by other parents. If the parents of my kids' teammates are as dumb as the people currently in the stands, I won't be able to take it. I probably won't be able to bite my tongue either.

On the flip side, I really hope I end up having the patience to teach the idiot parents in the stands the rules of the game and how/why things happen out there.
