My DD is in her third year of travel ball, B league, 12U. The first year she played with a team that formed a year before. She was taunted at school by some of the girls telling her she didn't belong, wasn't good enough. I thought we were past this crap this year. Now it seems to be rearing it's head again. Instead of telling her she doesn't belong they are attacking her for showing off and then it goes past showing off to personal attacks about boys and other things.
My DD is very extroverted, talks alot, jokes with parents, players, other teams, umpires. It doesn't matter who she talks to or jokes with, it's just her personality. She's made friends with the 16U team because she's been practicing with them. When she jokes around with them or hangs out with them at tournaments then her own team mates attack her. My DD loves playing softball but when these attacks start on her it gets her down. Has anyone dealt with a similar situation?
