The score has no influence on any decision I make in these situations. I call what I see and I try to get into a best position to make the call appropriately. Not sure what you mean by "That way the kids decide the outcome." The kids are deciding the outcome, I am just making the right call to the best of my abilities.

Peace

Agreed. I'm not good enough to change my reactions based on the score.
