There is a girl in my daughters training group (training level 9/10) who is driving her crazy (they are both 12). She comes home most days complaining about how this girl cheats on conditioning, never doing full amount of reps and cheats on assignments, for example if they are told to make 3 series on beam this girl will do 1, and then stand around and be "done" when the other girls are. I have tried telling her to focus on her gymnastics, and that this girl is only hurting herself, and it will catch up to her, however this girl is also easily one of the best on the team, scored the best last season, usually gets new skills first, is a complete natural. So my daughter isn't buying that this will catch up to her eventually. Anything else I can say to her other than keep reiterating to just worry about her gymnastics and not what others are doing? I'm not sure why she is so hyper-focused and annoyed about her teammate. It's driving me nuts.
