Why? Just curious.

Why does she tear up in the car sometimes? Normally it will be a hard fought game and she will have had a hand in the loss directly in her opinion... Maybe it was "one bad pitch" or "one bad swing" but it is more tears of frustration with her...

Why do I have a rule of when I put the car in park at home the tears are over? She never cries in front of anyone other than me, not even her mom for some reason... It is not something that I have encouraged but just the way she has always been... We just kinda agreed that she could cry just as much as she wanted to on the trip home, get the emotions out, and when the car parks it is over... It is the same for discussing the game, even when she isn't crying, we discuss the game all the way home (whether it is me wanted to discuss it or her wanting to discuss it), car goes in park the discussion takes a break until she is ready to pick it back up... Short of it is, she needs a break to think and analyze, while I need a stiff drink or two and a bath some days...
