Our daughter had some very negative experiences with gymnastics, so she moved to dance and is much happier. Let your daughter find an activity that she likes that isn't controlled by domineering parents.

THAT... is beyond awesome. That's a balanced, well-rounded kid talking. That had to be gratifying to hear.

When one of our boys would lay down some awesomeness and solid character like that, my wife and I had a "thing/inside joke" we would say to each other in private: "That probably means we did more stuff right than we did wrong."

It's moments like that when you realize that all the diaper changing and getting up in the middle of the night, etc. are nothing... especially in comparison to the rewards.

Chris/Legion, are you reading about this awesome kid stomachmonkey has? Your son is gonna show you some serious awesomeness, too. I guarantee he will.

I have an 11 yo and a 14 yo.
Yeah, sounds like the whole saga sucks.
The upside is that your kid will have to deal with life being unfair sooner or later so take it as a lesson for her. It may hurt her (and you), but she has an opportunity to learn how to bounce back.
Kids that never experience disappointment / failure / injustice struggle all the more when they finally do have to deal with it, as they all will eventually.
Having said that, if you get a chance to point out to the parent who fired your kid that she's a dick, go for it.
