Wow jkristana, that was bad of your coach to treat you like that, so wrong and what you are discribing IS abuse. What was said to you is abuse as well, it sounds like your coach is an abusive man, and that is no way to treat anyone. And your father is NOT showing good parenting skills either. You don't help boys grow up by locking them outside either. This taking the abuse is not the answer. What is being done to you will be done to others as well and that is poor cruel abusive coaching as well as parenting. Personally your coach should be reported. You should report him to the high school councelor and also tell your councelor that you will get punished at home as well.

The only way we stop abuse is to report it.
