[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 456012, member: 8831"] did it last tues after a full blown meltdown at field hockey and i wasnt as nice as you about it. after $200+ worth of a non-returnable equipment purchase, its clear she needs to quit. (its also slightly my fault--i know nothing about field hockey and underestimated the fact one needs fine motor skills to manipulate the stick--i wrongly assumed it was just whacking a ball--had no idea there is only one side of the stick that whacks!) i dont care if it turns out she's got some freak talent for some sport down the road--this is my very last foray into the world of competitive sports. [I]never again. [/I] so dont beat yourself up over it--they need to hear it at some point, and you are human. it happens. [/QUOTE]
