[quote=Anonymous]Hey OP this is a crappy situation, so sorry. You must honor your DDs wishes or lose her trust. Continue talking with her about options. Passive bullying is insidious and has become the new norm. If you involve lawyers/media to blow this up, your DD will be mortified. Sure, some compassionate supporters will emerge but the end result will not be in your DDs favor. Of course, if this were a case of physical bullying, assault, social media attack...then yes, legal action. I’m a firm believer in passive revenge and have been very successful a couple of times. If DD agrees, meet with coach and give details. Ask that your DDs privacy be respected. Most schools cannot act (i.e. kick girls off team) when passive bullying happens off school property. Heck, passive bullying is rarely punishable. I bet the coach knows team and their parents, well enough. I bet coach can figure out a way to send some pain toward the offenders. If DD is a valuable player, might be the time to rethink DD as captain. Reason is that she handled poor sportsmanship by team mates with grace. She did not trash talk about them to others. She can teach them that her strength and dignified approach is very much needed in a team captain. If the parents bitch about it, then coach exposes their precious bullies. Do not even get involved with parents. If coach will not consider this option, present plan B. Plan B is moving DD up to varsity. If not now, then soon after she proves she is athletically ready. Varsity is not just reserved for the stars, but for the athletes with integrity. This should be the goal and reason why others will not get the opportunity before your DD. Stay quiet with others. Only involve coach and DD. As time goes on, your DD takes a leadership role as captain or varsity. The bitch moms and their spawns will out themselves by complaining to coach, who will then expose them. Put it on the coach. You and DD remain gracious and more empowered. Your DD (with patience) wins, in the end. Please try this! Coach doesn’t want to deal with a shit show and might like this plan. If you have any other connections to a pro player that would consider a meet and greet with your DD, do it. Pay for tickets to an event with VIP pass. Invite one of her real friends and get pics for the gram! DCUM, help her DD out...some of you must be connected! [/quote]
