I like to give my kids a choice in the sports they do. If they want to quit they need to wait until the season is over. My kids are 7 & 9. I try not to push them but instead nudge them along. If they want to be better at a sport then they could practice more and that would feel good. I want them to learn to please them selves and feel successful. I'm trying to focus on their effort more than the outcome.

I would suggest if you are conserned about what is happening in sports have a talk with her. It may help both of you understand and think about things in a different way.
