Oh my, I have stood up and literally kicked the bucket before out of frustration from my daughter's mouth during our practices.
I know the pain. Basically I sit on my low chair and call pitches for her. She does not connect or do them correctly, I say nothing because she already knows. If she repeats the same problem over and over, all I will say is think about your basic mechanics to a good pitch. Then call a simple strike over the plate. Let her connect a few of those and move on to next pitch. I have learned to try to keep a smile on her face with little one liners or come visit her in the circle and tell her a funny story. This has taken months to get here but now she comes to me about practicing. She also ask for advice when she does it wrong or tells me we got to go see the pitching coach.
Remember back off a little and let the child be a child. She started because it was fun not a job that she despises....save that for adulthood.
