Watch your kid...or ref?

I officiated my boys games...when they were in middle school. My assignor said the school would be very happy to have an experienced varsity official there...as would the visiting coach. So I did it.
My boys didn't really like it though...they said I usually called more fouls on them then anyone else. You know what, they were probably right.
They went on to race motorcross...not play H.S. basketball...so I did not have to make the choice of officiating or watching my boys participate.

BTW, I would not have officiated their H.S. games...just for the perceived bias, real or imagined.
