Ersbel Oraph Chris Bell battles yet again his demons. Each time its another aspect of his life and his family. And it's nice. But Bigger, Faster is still his best achievement because he makes the story personal to another level. Here there is a glimpse into some people's lives. Although everything is cut to fit to a certain image, these are still only small fragments. And because there are more stories everything is less concentrated as in the story of the Bells.Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch

ianrobo For me sport is fun, for me sport is about being competitive but after riding my bike it is about beating my previous PB or doing well, thats my achievement.For my daughter in swimming and yes dancing it is great to see her happy winning a trophy or being in the swim team, I say to her, be the best you can then you can never say you never tried.That is all we should ask of our kids but now the money is so much, any kid with a slight bit of talent is pushed and pushed. Very few make it and the stories of the failures (they are not to me) are common all over.Money is driving parents to look at the $$ signs and not what is best for their kid. A talented and determined kid will always come through, a bullied kid will fail. I look at Andy Murray, for sure his parents and esp Mum pushed him but it is clear he is a normal functioning guy with normal emotions. It is clear he was never pushed beyond what he wanted to do and he won.On this program these parents don't see beyond themselves and their own egos and wallets, That is all that matters to them, why have kids I ask ?

CN If you're a parent and you're looking for what NOT to do as a parent, this is the show for you! Truly a disgusting display of poor parenting skills. Whether it's the moms or the dads, they are all warped. One mom wants us to believe she's got Jesus on her side, but she's just a warped as the dads, maybe more because she doesn't believe what she's doing is wrong. When Justus's dad is screaming at him in the car while visiting the mom in Washington I was shocked that his mother didn't stop that cr4p when it first started to happen. Clearly they've got some 'family dynamic' issues when her 2 middle boys have a different daddy than Justus and the baby - I feel certain his bad behavior didn't just start when Justus was 15, but regardless his dad's attitude and approach was disturbing to say the least - sort of glad when he got hurt. :) Poor Amari, that sweet baby just needs a hug and a high five - her daddy is just looking for a big pay day off the back of his child. The basketball boys have it rough too, but at least their dad's say "I love you" occasionally, which is more than some of the others ever say.

cafesmitty So I saw this and it was making me very upset at the parents. This documentary is about parents who live through their children's sports accomplishments and how the parents try to push their dreams on their kid. You have a divorce father, who just berates his son as he watches over every aspect of his son's football life. He absolutely destroys his son's self esteem. You have another father who believes that if he gets his son the right type of things to eat, his son will grow taller. He doesn't so much get on his son's case (basketball dad), he curses at the coach, bad mouths other players (on and off his son's team) Another father, whose son plays on the same team, he is a little more calm at the game but if very underhanded himself You have the worst of the bunch, a father who is trying to push his 7 year old (or 8 year) old daughter into being the next Tiger Woods. He actually calls his daughter names. And he makes disparaging remarks about another race. And you have an over educated, over thinking mother, who has twin boys and she is pushing them into tennis. But she uses the excuse of this is what GOD wants from them. And they are nothing more than a microcosm representation of a larger issue... the Parent who feel the need to live vicariously through their children and who seem to be having a second life renaissance by abusing the youth of their offspring. As if parental ability (basically the ability to biology create a kid) give them the right to do whatever the heck they want to do. And on the faces of these kids you can see how miserable they are pretty much. The type of pressure put on these kids result in the kids either commenting suicide or taking it out on others.. And these parents are completely blind in seeing this. Very interesting documentary.
