Tennis dad: Mentor or tormentor?~~~
I saw the Iyeyemi family at the Eddie Herr last year and though there were over 1,000 kids there, as this story says in the opening paragraph, it wasn't hard to remember them. The number of tennis-playing children that can be described as "raggedy" with "dingy and tattered clothes" is small, believe me.
I won't pretend that I have anything to add to this comprehensive, exhaustive and balanced look at the arrest of Clement Iyeyemi. It's obvious that the reporter spent close to a month gathering information for this story, and it now will be played out in the courts of France. But please read the story and take a moment to consider the family torn apart by a tennis dream.
