You see it all the time.
Your daughter walks off the field with slumped shoulders. She’s quiet in the car ride home, maybe frustrated tears in her eyes. You try to encourage her, “You did great!”, but she shrugs it off or snaps, “You don’t get it, Mom.”
Mistakes are part of every athlete’s experience, whether your daughter is just starting out in sports or she’s been competing for years. The way she handles those mistakes, though? That can make all the difference in how much she enjoys the game, how well she plays, and how confident she feels, both on and off the field.
If you’re reading this, I already know something about you: You deeply care about your daughter; not just how she performs in her sport, but how she feels about herself while she’s doing it.
Deciding whether to quit a sport can feel like standing at a crossroads with no clear direction. You love the game, but the challenges keep piling up. You wonder if it’s worth the struggle or if walking away might be the best choice. Maybe you’re stuck in that indecisive place right now, unsure what to do next.
