[quote=Anonymous]"She is quite dizzy during the day, but at least she is not up all night thinking about why a shorter girl with less than 50% of her skills made her position on the team despite being cut earlier during tryouts. "

Something is wrong with you.

It is called tryouts for a reason. No matter how many times you type, the other kid wasn't as good as yours, the coaches disagreed. Or it was political, which is also a thing in sports tryouts. Always has been always will be. Does it make it right no, we all know that. Will it ever change? No.

Life is unfair. Instead of teaching your kid life skills like how to handle disappointment, you made your child suffer. For Volleyball.....

Grow up get your kid help asap, and read some good books on parenting because this reaction of your kid is on you. You failed as a parent to prepare them for rejection.

This below what I quoted is a way nicer response than you deserve, given you came on social media and ranted over and over again about a nothingburger. It's  HS volleyball for god's sake.

"I  do think you need to stop focusing on the girl who made the team you think should not have. You and daughter can’t control what coaches decide. Had 4 kids go through many levels and never had one coach who I didn’t think to myself could have picked different players, allocated playing time differently, or run other plays. They are the coach, it’s their job and their decision. Same thing once out of school and working, boss is going to do things not everyone agrees with for reasons unknown. Winter and spring sports just around the corner, plenty more opportunities to play sports."
