[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid is in the shower sobbing after meets about why they can't cut time, OP here.[/quote] I could have written this. Turns out a teammate of his (from club and summer) was giving him grief about not being on the top of the ladder anymore. "It must suck to be slow now." Really wish parents wouldn't share the ladder with their kids, especially if they know their child is emotionally immature. [/quote] This is how it is in every sport, including professional sports. The response to such taunting is "For now. Losing is temporary, but winning is forever. I'll be back up there soon". Then your kid needs to put his money where his mouth is and work harder than everyone else. Extra practice, private coaching, watching film of his swims, implementing every suggested improvement, etc.[/quote]
