[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your kid needs to dish it right back. Seriously, teach your kid to say, “you’re disgusting” or “you’re the very worst” or “why don’t you shut up? Everyone hates you.” I know that’s awful, but it will stop the bully. [/quote] Responding with, “you’re disgusting” to a team mate telling you to try harder is a huge over reaction and would make OP’s daughter look unhinged and psycho. This is a team sport. This is part of a team sport: getting feedback and sometimes criticism from teammates. This can come of as negative, especially with teens. But expecting the coach to the only one that corrects or criticizes playing or offers feedback is unrealistic. Of course team mates are going to have comments for each other. I don’t think the girl has crossed into bully territory, she just sounds dominant and rude. Your daughter needs to just ignore her. Perhaps pick up tennis or swimming or another individual sport.
