[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Go Nats! I’m sure their parents held them back. Funny, isn’t it watching the best of the best. To play at that level requires a parent who believed in you, your talent and lots and lots of practice. And telling you an 84 B is not going to get you where you want to go. [/quote] You just CANNOT SEE THE POINT!! What you report about your daughter's attitude is distressing. Those of us who work in education see this manifest in a fear of failure (which you have stoked), inability to cope with imperfection, and yes, more attempted suicides than we can count on our fingers and toes. FWIW Patrick Corbin showed up to his high school baseball tryouts in jeans because he didn't own baseball pants, hadn't played in years, and a friend dragged him along. Do not bring those sweet, fun loving, baseball smashing men into your defense of this parenting style. [/quote]
