[quote=Anonymous]Please, please let her try! And even fail. This is a life lesson. She will face a lot of failure and rejection in life and she needs to learn to brush it off and move on. Just remember that Michael Jordan was put on JV after he tried out for varsity in high school. Failure is NECESSARY for success -- not something to be avoided. You cannot protect her from it, nor should you want to since it will stunt her potential in life. If you are still traumatized by mean girls from your youth, you need to work on that -- but don't project your issues onto your daughter. “Failure is success in progress.” – Albert Einstein [/quote]
