First, I read O'Sullivan's article a few days ago and it was chilling. His father was/is just a psycho criminal. I grew up playing hockey and saw a lot of pressure on kids -- makes you wonder what you didn't see and how bad it got. For my part, I think my Dad knew there was no point in pushing that hard -- I wasn't showing any particular talent. Scares me as I think about putting my young son in skates. Will just try to have the perspective my Dad had. In the end, it just goes back to this -- there are a ton of idiots out there, and they breed. A lot.
