[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 625450, member: 1722"] Being gifted athletically doesn't mean she's ready for team sports. I suspect your daughter, while talented, may be a perfectionist... this can make her terribly anxious. I think you and your ex need to find an athletic outlet for her but minimize winning and competition. She's very young and needs to build her skills and be a team player. You both need to gently tell her to see the coach or team mom/dad first for anything that hurts so she can be a little independent. [/QUOTE]
