Thank you all so much, I thought this thread was going to go in a different direction. It's very comforting to know I'm not the only one struggling with this
When I posted I was at a tourney and my dd actually asked for help but when I tried to help she just wanted to argue. Game time she knows I won't say anything unless she asks, practice is the only time I will try to give advise and even then I walk on eggshells. I just got so frustrated when she asked (which she will do occasionally) and then was very disrespectful. Looking back now I understand that she lashed out at me because she's frustrated with her self. ...She's struggling with staying in her lean and it's even got worse since she's tried to correct it.
I take my cues from PC, and PC has told her a few times that without my help her progress will be much slower.
I take all your advise to heart and hopefully will find something that works for a while then I'm sure I'll have to change it up.
For me it's definitely not about the pitching it's about spending quality time with her. I love just playing catch it's some of the rare times we actually laugh with each other, since she became an evil teen. Part of me wishes she would give up pitching it's a pain in the butt! but while she's still passionate about it I will try to help the best way I can. ...I have to admit pitching is fun!
Hope this post made some sense it's been a long day!
Love hearing your stories and solutions!!
