[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok just stop really stop [/quote]
I really appreciate your kind tone

[quote=Anonymous]Your kid has a mental illness and needs help now their reaction is beyond out of the norm. [/quote]
I was already concerned about that and others sent the same message in a way that was much easier to swallow.

[quote=Anonymous]You should have never talked about the other girl. Coaches pick kids for so many reasons and it is not your concern [/quote]
Whatever affect my kid is my concern. Stop putting coaches on pedestal as if they are gods who cannot make mistakes. I talked about the other player while trying to avoid providing identification information. To help you understand why my DD is upset, I had to mention that she was cut before my DD (who was still competing until the last day of tryouts). I also talked about her height and skill level because I wanted to make the point that the coach's decision cannot be explain by any standard volleyball metrics.

[quote=Anonymous]Your kid didn’t make the cut you failed to make your kid understand this is not life ending. HS is four years she’s not playing volleyball for a dam job. [/quote]
Thank you for making me understand what a big failure I am. Volleyball is my DD's sport and she doesn't have your extensive experience and perspective. I will ask my DD to think about it less like a job. Who the heck believes that a teenager thinks about her sport as a job?

[quote=Anonymous]Get her help now you did this to your kid. Getting  cut from a sports team is as old as time .[/quote]
I did (see my previous message). Also, I appreciate the explanation about players getting cut from sports. I didn't know that.

[quote=Anonymous]And yes coaches in MCPS cut kids and bring them back it has happened at Wootton , QO and Whitman [/quote]
The same sh*t happening everywhere means it's ok. Got it.

[quote=Anonymous]Signed mother of multiple divsion one players different sports [/quote]
Thank you for rubbing in my face the great success you had raising successful division one players in different sports. You must understand a lot of what I am going through right now. Honestly, do you think this grandiose signature gives your message some special weight?

[quote=Anonymous]And yes I know from experience about kids getting cut one including mine. Sports are not the be end all an education is life learning is [/quote]
I will take this as if you meant to provide some special insight, despite what seems like rambling. [/quote]
