Just say something sarcastic and go pout in the bedroom? LOL. If you bail, you're afraid. If you're afraid, you're donating your money to some program instead of using it wisely for food or clothing or music lessons.
By the way, I just watched Michigan vs Notre Dame in an NCAA regional softball game. EVERY HITTER (with exception of two lefty slappers) employed a batting stance and style similar to the standard baseball stance and style: slightly closed stance; hands up and back; cock the bat (loading) as the ball is released; step and swing;
There wasn't a single flattened bat or any of those other odd behaviors invented by guys with too much time on their hands. Every hitter ATTACKED the ball. NO ONE bailed out of the box. No one moved their feet in the box as the ball was being delivered. No one moved back in the box or up in the box between pitches. No one was afraid.
