“I cannot trust you. You have proven over and over again that you only care about yourself. When any opportunity to humiliate me presents itself, you jump on it without thought. Your words TO me and ABOUT me continue to be hurtful and demeaning. I no longer wish to speak to you or acknowledge you in any way for the rest of our lives.”
“I blamed you for things you didn’t do. I held things against you for no reason. Although I do think you have things that you need to cope with, I forgive you for the bad moments and I am sorry for the things I blamed you for that you actually never did.”
“Why don’t we talk anymore? Is there something bad between us? Or are we both just too busy and the time difference makes it impossible for us to talk?”
“I am not here for you, liar. Everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie. You are a user and you need to figure your own life out without my help. Find someone else who cares.”
“I don’t care what you think. This is who I am and I do not care if you like it.”
“So you both thought you could do better? See, it never was about me and the way I coach. Some of these kids, including one of yours, don’t like to work hard and will never be great at sports. They just like being with their friends and that’s it. Most of these kids will never be superstar athletes. Just let them have fun.”
“Your kid needs counseling. Please, please get him some help and make sure he really wants to play soccer before you sign him up again.”
“I think you’re an amazing mom. I had no idea you were his stepmom. Last season and this season, everything you’ve done shows me that you love and care for him like he was your own. I think you’re a great human being.”
“Thank you for giving me an opportunity to coach a sport I love. I am really loving these practices and I hope I can help this team win some games.”
“Your kid is a brat. She thinks she can pout her way into opportunities and I don’t see that stopping with the way you are currently enabling her.”
