I'm sure there is a post somewhere on this but I can't find it. My daughter (level 3) had her worst meet ever today. It started on vault and went downhill from there. She was state champ on vault so to score an 8.6 to start off the day I think threw her off completely. I tried to focus on her bar score which was the best yet but she reminded me that her big step out caused her a .3 deduction. Then beam was a hot mess. I lost count of how many falls the judges probably deducted her for. She grabbed the beam to save a fall then didn't do her dismount. She is so disappointed in herself. She couldn't really recover from a 7.650 beam score. Watching her fight back tears was tough for this mama. She refuses to talk about the meet. Is that ok? Is that normal? I have just let her do her thing today and tried to support to and give her extra love. She's been very snappy and her attitude is not good towards me. Any words of wisdom on what to say to her or should I just leave it alone and let her talk to me when she is ready?
