Parents Behaving Badly

Parents Sue to Get Child on Flag Football Team

by admin on September 16th, 2005

I don’t blame these parents to going for bat for their kid. Okay, it’s a little questionable insisting that a 151-lb. 11-year-old be allowed to play flag football in clear violation of the weight limit. Still, given that the limit is 150 lbs., it’s not unreasonable for Kyle St. Peter’s father, Kevin St. Peter, to ask the Sterling Heights, Michigan league to re-weigh him. What is questionable is clogging up our court system with frivolous lawsuits over FLAG FOOTBALL. Come on, people - it’s not even like it’s a real sport! And the parents are suing in Macomb County Court alleging that they’ve violated the kid’s civil rights! Seriously, can’t the judge dismiss this case with prejudice on the grounds of “you’ve got to be fucking kidding me”?
