I have a 9 year old daughter , who says she wants me to sign her up for sports , softball , dance etc.. so I sign her up she gets hit or falls and she wants to quit.
So my question is how do you stop a child from quitting something that I know she enjoys.
I know this because she played it when she was in second grade , but the coach pitched. she is older now ands in fourth grade and a softbll player pitches. She got hit by the ball at her first attempt and now wants to quit because she is afraid.
I know she likes the game and I know she can hit the ball so how do I get her to not be afraid of the ball. and how do I get her back in the batters box.
Its not only the whole afraid thing I paid forty bucks for her to play they have ordered jerseys and now its just money down the drain , unless I can fix it.
Now I know as a parent I should not force her to play , if she doesn't want to , but thats money I can't get back and thats just her becoming a quitter. I am not sure what to do , so if anyone has any advice please let me know.
