7 y/o girl told she can't play on baseball team, mom cries sexism

Featured Replies

I think she's more upset probably because her daughter is [most likely] upset. I'm not a father yet, but I'd have to imagine seeing your child upset is one of the worst feelings in the world. So, in other terms, I think she personally shouldn't be upset, but for the sake of her daughter, yes she should. They have to know or believe you're on their side and that starts off very young.

The video on that link doesn't show an upset girl.

 

She specifically said she was sad when she found out.

 

True. However, I can see both sides of this coin, on one hand this is a good chance to teach the girl that life isn't fair and it will have it's disappointing moments. on the other hand, she's only seven. Just a silly issue all around.

I love when you editorialize the title of threads, i.e. "cries sexism.". That's not in the title of the article. I knew it was one of your threads just based on that lol

Is the physical difference between 7-year olds really great enough to require all-male leagues?

 

 

Serious tee-ball coach is serious.
