Not the umpire's issue. If the violation was bad enough to warrant an ejection as opposed to a bench restriction (and in this case I believe it did), the player should be gone. Babysitting her is the school's problem.

If you really want to instill the idea of what not to do on a ball field, dump the player. It probably will not happen again especially if an assistant coach has to sit on the bus or in the parking lot with the player.
