[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I appreciate the thoughtful responses and perspectives. My hope is that DD might want to get back to the pool for less intense training, especially if she decides to continue to swim for her HS team and summer team. One thing that may be hard about that is accepting that she won't be as fast or making improvements in the same way she did. [/quote]

Well, quitting altogether means she really doesn't care about improving times, right? So mow she can swim for herself, not for records. It's a healthy place to be.[/quote]

That is a good point.  I think it is worth trying to figure out is it the sport itself or maybe some of the other things going on around.  My sister quit basketball in high school, she was fed up with the coaches' kids trying to exclude her.  I think she regrets not playing more.

I stuck with it, hating every minute, but looking back now that I have kids doing it.  I actually like/liked the sport doing the drills and what, just not the things that went on around it.[/quote]
