[quote=Anonymous]Agree that nothing will change. My DD is at the elite level in an extremely competitive sport, and one girl has been along for the ride with her the entire time. Whatever rules applied to everyone else were never applied to this girl because she would often get results (not always, but reputation matters and she built a reputation early on for producing). Contract says no crying and others are sent home from practice for crying? This girl would cry the entire time and coaches would look the other way. No competition allowed the week of an illness? The girl would come in wildly sick, infect everyone else, miss two practices and still be allowed to compete. And then everyone else would miss the competition the next week.

We are years into this and only now is it sort of catching up to the other girl, and only because she never had to develop the same mental stamina and strength as the others when she was receiving all sorts of exceptions. She’s having some performance issues related to mental blocks but I don’t know if that will be her undoing. Even with that, the coaches seem to give her a pass when they’ve pulled other girls with similar issues.

Tell your DS to focus on himself because giving the other kid his precious energy is a big fat waste.[/quote]
