[QUOTE="DDD, post: 614330, member: 35"] Sure sounds like Jumper is on the upswing. Frankly I was going to "gently" suggest that perhaps the problems were not basketball but her new "best friend boyfriend". Why? Well, based on teen raising experience of too many years, I feared that (1) his deep presence in her life could have alienated or lessed her "bond" with the girls or (2) heaven forbid, she is now or is contemplating a more intimate relationship. been there done that, myself. If there's any chance that (2) is the issue I wouldn't hesitate a minute to discuss the dangers of spending too much time with her boyfriend and perhaps brith control too. It's been over 50 years since I "fell in love" in high school and I still remember how the joy was almost overwhelmed by the awareness of hormones. Sigh. As always I have a warm spot for Jumper and hope she regains her happy confidence. Hugs DDD [/QUOTE]
