How do you know when it’s just time to quit?
The next time your daughter is frustrated with her sport, sit her down and let her know that you believe it’s time for her to let it go. Remind her of all the malcontent she has experienced, as well as its impact on the family, and express to her why it does not seem worth the trouble for her to participate in something that does not appear to bring her happiness.
It may be too difficult for her to imagine walking away on her own accord after four years, but if she is truly miserable—and trapped in a situation with a coach who isn’t optimistic about her prospects on the field—then you should be the heavy and make an executive decision. Wishing you all the best on what will likely be a difficult series of conversations, but hopefully, one that leaves your child feeling better than she currently does.

Dear Abby: Drug abuse, bad finances derail caregiver’s lifeDEAR ABBY: I’m conflicted about a relationship I have developed with a 77-year-old lady I’ll call “Martha.” I have been acting as her caregiver.For the first three years, I was addicted to pain pills, which Martha and I both get. I was so strung out I didn’t realize what kind of person she was. She expects me to be there every free minute, which, under different circumstances, would be fine. But I have a husband and a dog. I have since gotten sober, while Martha is still strung out. She threatens to destroy my life if I won’t do what she wants, and I’m scared to quit because we have loans together.
