I tried some damage control of my own last night----tried to tell D13 (who was visibly upset about making dad mad) that she is getting a lot of pitching time in, and that homework does need to come first. I also told her that she needs to be happy with what she does too----and that she doesn't need to do things just to make dad happy.................(which is what I'm working on myself).....don't know if it "sunk in." I can only hope that she doesn't feel like she has to give in and let him control her.............will concentrate on building her up to know that she is special---no matter what.
