Hi all
My daughter has a big decision to make and need some advice???. She plays soccer in the fall for her high school. In a few weeks she has a softball showcase to attend and she would miss a Saturday HS soccer game.
The big question is does she tell her coach that she will be out or does she call in sick ? My daughter is afraid to say anything to the coach. And the coach isn't a very understanding coach either. Some parents have been honest only to have their kids punished on the sidelines... She knows if she misses a game she will be sitting but she doesn't want to deal with the coaches attitude......
I know we teach our kids to be honest but there are coaches out there who are power driven and honesty may not be the best policy here ?
Can anyone share some advice or similar circumstances that you have encountered? We would love to hear your opinion.....
Thanks
