Welcome to the forums, at least with this account.
I guess we might need a coaches name in order to validate your claim. Otherwise I will say that I know several coaches that bring/brought their kids into rooms before they started officially competing as that is what happens when you grow up around the sport. I will also say that every one of those coaches I know has not wrestled their kids in Novice more than one or two tournaments, they throw them into open and run with it. Did you ever play baseball or football with your kid in the backyard? That’s practice right? A wrestling room is a coaches back yard. A true experienced wrestling coach probably won’t try to let their kid float through in novice, they want the real challenge. I won’t say it hasn’t ever happened outside my experience but some kids are naturally gifted and pick the sport up quickly with a few common moves and that allows them to run through Novice, but would get destroyed in Open depending on age weight. So then in that case what is fair? Make them wrestle open then leave the sport in the 1st year? It’s novice it shouldn’t be about winning and losing it should be about growing and getting better each match.
It’s a rough road to walk sometimes but I don’t think calling out coaches is the right direction, they are usually the ones that put their kids through the grind. And yes not all clubs have the integrity you would like to see, that shows with satellite weigh ins also.
