[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many GK parents on this forum have had their kid lit up for 8+ goals in a half or match? How did you help them deal with that? Are they still a GK now?[/quote] Absolutely. At 12, DD was left in for all 60 minutes of a 16-0 loss. We looked at it as a learning experience -- some days things aren't going to go your way, and you just get up and try to stop the next shot. Same thing when we get placed in higher brackets of tournaments and get crushed in 3 straight games. 1-0 and PK losses are infinitely worse. Kids aren't stupid. They know when their team is clearly overmatched. It's when they think "if I had made that one save" that things get rougher. [/quote]
