I was asking the thread yes. I think this youngest girl thing is an issue many girls must face. It is a hard thing to face being youngest and feeling left out.
I took this into consideration when looking for a new gym. This sport is hard enough with team and friends supporting you. I can't think about DD doing it alone.
Again...everything comes at a price. I'm sure as an outsider it's easy for you to make that statement...having a practice where you have a training plan, etc is not nearly the same as a private. Even if there is just one kid, trust me it's very different.It's like she is getting a private at every practice. Take it while you can get it
I didn't mean to offend you. It was my impression the OP DD was happy with her group and the gym but wasn't always with them to, I assume, uptrain? Anyway, when you are 1 of 20 some individual attention sounds like heaven!Again...everything comes at a price.

I think her team have become like her sisters and training by herself or even in smaller group that isn't her team makes her sadI can see how this feeling of being alone could cause a problem. We are lucky enough to attend a gym with girls close in age and desire. DD has always been the youngest and still is. I would think being the youngest or oldest could cause a problem. The old gym girls treated her well, like a mature little sister.
Does your DD feel alone because of age or other reasons?
This. This is what we are dealing with. My dd is surpassing the highest level and oldest girls in the gym with less hours. Right now she's number two but it's only a matter of time. It's throwing everyone for a loop. How did you and your dd navigate the teen drama? Some days they cheer for her and some days they talk behind her back.
