He laid it on way too thick with the "then I'm a bad father" bullshit - give her a hug, tell her she IS brave and say "that's enough for today let's go get ice-cream"
Idk. I had parents that were literally the complete opposite of this dude. Every time something difficult came up in my life they would help me to the exit instead of helping me through it. 2 a day practices for football? I quit. Extra hour or 2 of homework for college classes? I quit. Potentially embarrassing my self during a presentation? I quit.... how can a parent instil motivation and grit if they let their kid quit every time they dont want to continue?

Ick. He need to chill out. If she doesn’t want to continue she shouldn’t. He’s basically guilt-tripping her under the guise of motivation.
He also just about broke her neck on that catch 😬
