Yes. Just saying its a case of judgement, but I wouldn't put myself in a position where that might happen.

What would change if your sons team didn't have to retreat to the halfway line? I'd suggest the score would remain the same if not increased.
I'd also query how much of a passing/possession side it is if you're scoring 34 goals in 40 mins. I'd suggest when a team is so dominant, the manager needs to swap all their positions round, swap the keeper etc. and make it clear that you want to see them keep the ball for 20 passes before they have a shot at goal. Get them trying things within the match environment, like only shooting from outside the box, or trying to score a headed goal. This is what coaches and managers have a responsibility to do. Who has gained anything from those score lines? Rather than win by those large margins, other things can be coached into the youngsters to experiment with in a game.

The team always make more then five passes and reguarly change positions. Ultimately how beyond that do you tell 7 year old kids not to score? Thats the sort of attitude and suggestion that is part pf the british problem. The fear of instilling a winning mentality.

I managed Juniors team from U8s to U16s, simple rule was any parent that decided they would coach their own son the son was dropped to the bench for the next game - soon shut the parents up.
You punished the children for the parents' poor behaviour? That seems an odd attitude to take.
Not really, shut the parents up so achieved objective
