Dad Fined for Teaching Kids Tennis | Wilmington News

A San Francisco dad got a surprise visit from park rangers while playing tennis with his kids—mistaken for a paid instructor, he narrowly avoided a $192 fine after his son shouted, “He’s my daddy.” Though the misunderstanding was resolved, Dogen questions why family recreation should be policed like commercial activity, especially in a city where parents just want to bond on public courts. The Parks Department says checks are routine to distinguish between paid lessons and personal play—but Dogen hopes rules can be more flexible, so families don’t get fined for simple, loving moments on the court.
