So if he doesn't help her with her pitching, she will be a failure???!!!

You know what, I don't get angry on here very often, but you know what?

FCUK HIM!!!!


DREW - Thank you! I feel exactly the same way, and I'm done letting him push this attitude on her. She already has trouble with self esteem. She is VERY talented, and pitching is her THING (one of only a few) that she excels at, but his recent fanatical push to practice and excel is bringing her down. She told me last weekend that he said the other pitcher on the team was going to have to come in and "save" her because her speed has slowed down and without practice she was going to need help. When I write this, I know that my answer will always be to let them decide first and not push them to go (to extra practices)when they don't want to----which I have done-----to "make him happy" or to try to keep peace. Unfortunately I can't keep them from doing things to make him happy or to avoid the anger----as is evident in the above e-mail.
