Most of America’s youth coaches are feeling burnout with over 40 percent citing unruly parents are the reason they want to quit. Relationship Expert, Julie Nise, says the diversity, equity, and inclusion movement has gotten out of hand.
“People not being held accountable and our social structure deteriorating we’ve got people that think they can do whatever they want to do.” Nise said.
The only way to resolve this growing problem in society she says is by restoring law and order.
“I don’t see this as going well. If we can get rid of DEI, backwards rules and regulations, unconstitutional behaviors, and the rule of law- if we can do all that- we seem to be doing good. Theres a whole generation or 2 that believe they can do whatever they want and they don’t have to obey the rules. Look at Minnesota right now.” She said.
Unfortunately, Nise says, we are going in the opposite direction.
More than 35% of respondents said that they also experienced discrimination based on sex, age and physical appearance from other coaches as well as parents of athletes.
The survey results add to an already troubling picture about the future of youth sports, with coaches joining game officials in questioning whether the hassles outweigh the joys of the job.
