[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would only keep her if you can have an extra spot on the team to keep her.  Devastating some other kid and cutting them is not the right answer either.

Or agree you make her the manager.  Or you personally transition her to another team and environment that's more appropriate for you.  Time to get creative. There is a solution that does not involve F-ing over some other kid.

By the way, if she is less skilled and makes the team anyway the other kids all know it and they will know she got kept on the team because of her personal situation and [b]they likely won't be kind about it.[/b]  Not sure you're doing her any favors.[/quote]
What sort of monster are you raising? If you have a kid who ends up maybe not making team because the coaches accommodated a girl whose mother died, I would hope that you would put that into perspective. There are worse reasons for not making a team that people accept all the time--like the kid being the child of a coach. [/quote]
