Well this is so random but my dad is my soccer coach and when ever we are at practice and i say daddy he says i am not gunna respond to that call me coach.. and i get really sad
tada answered Saturday April 23 2005, 12:51 pm: well thats normal if hes your coach then dont exspect him to say daughter or son just call them coach cause hes there for a reason to be a coach and because its his job but if hes there coaching dont see him as your dad just like a teacher or coach but dont be sad cause after practice it will all be different and you can call him daddy again [ tada's advice column | Ask tada A Question ]

EnemaOfTheState answered Thursday April 21 2005, 10:28 pm: you should tell him.. be like "dad can i talk to you?" and he'll say yes of course cause parents are all touchy feely when you say can i talk to you. and just tell him that you would rather call him daddy than coach.. because thats what he is. hes your dad.. full time dad.. part time coach.. you deserve to call him dad [ EnemaOfTheState's advice column | Ask EnemaOfTheState A Question ]
S_C answered Thursday April 21 2005, 9:26 pm: No offense and not to sound harsh, but so what? I mean it's soccer, and he probably doesn't want to seem as if he goes easy when it comes to you. He probably wants to treat you (and vice versa) the same as everyone else. But if you're really upset about it, then talk to him. Ask him why you can't call him daddy. Me personally, and I've played soccer for years (but never with a parent as MY coach) and a lot of coaches had their child on the team and the coach treated them as one of us. He didn't make them any specialer. They were usually actually a bit tougher since it was their kid. But seriously just so I don't sound mean, and so I actually answer your question, talk to him if it's that big of a deal to you and ask his reasons. [ S_C's advice column | Ask S_C A Question ]

mapetiteodette answered Thursday April 21 2005, 6:26 pm: Don't get really sad, it's not worth the energy. Your dad probably feels a little embarrassed that you're calling him daddy even though he shouldn't be. I would talk to him about this and tell him that you really don't want to call him Coach, because he is your dad and you have a right to call him so. He will most likely give you the reason that he wants you to call him coach, and if I were you I'd listen very intently and make sure I understand why. This will help you communicate with him better.
Hope I helped :-) [ mapetiteodette's advice column | Ask mapetiteodette A Question ]
Stacey64 answered Thursday April 21 2005, 6:21 pm: This must really hurt. Confront him about how you feel about him not letting you call him Daddy.
Ask him why he wont let you call him daddy on the field.
Hope i helped
jbaldwin answered Thursday April 21 2005, 6:18 pm: That's not good... tell your dad how you feel and maybe the two of you can talk it over nd see how it takes off from there let me know if this helps. [ jbaldwin's advice column | Ask jbaldwin A Question ]
sweetjewel answered Thursday April 21 2005, 6:11 pm: he just wants your teamates to feel like your all equal and he doesnt want to give you special treatment just because your his daughter [ sweetjewel's advice column | Ask sweetjewel A Question ]
