She knows if it continues she will lose it all together, and I do follow through with threats I make, which is why I find it so disheartening that she doesn't listen. Now i have laid the punnishment on the table, she knows it will happen if she doesn't pull her head in. It is almost like she 'just doesn't get it' no matter how many times she loses out. I thought maybe she really doesn't like the sport, but it isn't that.

Maybe you are right about the hormones, maybe perserverence is the only way. Hell it is draining, and hard to be a mother to three when one takes up so much of your mental energy.

Okay, so I was looking for an easy out, when we all know with parenting there is no easy out.
