Sometimes yes, sometimes no - she had a Friday practice while I was out of town and my AC said she had a great practice. Other times I've been told she's un-coachable (notably by a hitting coach) because she shuts down after a mistake.
Say rather that I'll stop coaching her, but I won't stop coaching! Like I said, she just needs to survive fall ball and 7th grade school ball (if she makes the team).
Beyond all this softball related stuff, she does this in other aspects of her life: music, school, even playing video games.
How do her other teachers react when this happens? Does she respond well to some approaches better than others?
Doesn't sound like a SB issue to me. Parent coach may or may not be a contributing factor - but you could eliminate it as a variable. Sounds like she needs to figure out how to respond to failure in a more productive manner. Being successful is getting up one more time than you get knocked down and practice ensures that you get knocked down less frequently over time.
