[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't tell her. She won't believe you anyway. [b]Tell her how much you're planning to give per year or whatever the parameters are for where she can apply and let her try out for whatever team at whatever school she winds up at. [/b] She's NOT going to believe you. If you tell her she can't try, she will simply believe for the rest of her life she was awesome but her mother wouldn't let her realize her dreams. [/quote] This. You can play a sport at the college level; it just may not be one that's highly competitive in the rankings or give you a scholarship. You can get a good education at a college that "no one has heard of." She can be a mediocre/awful soccer/lacrosse/field hockey/soft ball/tennis player and still get a good education. If she loves a sport, it will help her find her niche. [/quote]
