My dd is 14, level 9/10. She is supposed to compete level 10 next season. She seems to be very conflicted. She says she doesn't want to quit but she also doesn't want to go to gym. She says that she wakes up in the morning and says to herself, "I don't feel like going... Why am I going if I don't feel like it?" She also says that some days are just so long and terrible. Today she came home and said in a very excited voice, "I am so close to my routines!! I made 5 perfect beam level 10 routines and my yeagers are getting so much more consistent! I had a wonderful day!" But yesterday she came home almost in tears saying how her coach was mad at her and that she had a horrible day and couldn't hit any skills. She also constatntly complains about being too tired. So I don't know what to tell her or how to help! Some days she LOVES gymnastics and other days she HATES it! She has also had many injuries in the past 3 years (broken growth plate in ankle, broken wrist, strained back... Ect) and says she is sick and tired of getting hurt.
Help!
