What's going on with how parents are behaving at sport?

from The Conversation Hour · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

As an altercation between parents occurred at a junior basketball game in Reservoir on the weekend, in this edition of The Conversation Hour we ask what's underpinning this aggressive behaviour and whether we are loosing sight of what kids sport is really about. Plus, as White Lotus star Lou Wood has spoken about feeling rebellious for not changing her teeth we discuss the connection between teeth and identity. And new research from Royal Life Saving Australia reveals that young people are not meeting the water safety benchmarks, so whose responsibly is it to make sure kids know how to swim?
