    Parents Xcel vs JO ( separation)

The only option for make ups is the two nights of the week we are not there. The JO levels are there. My dd did JO lev...

    Parents Negative talking at the gym

    I get so tired of hearing negative talk at our gym. The dynamic has changed somewhat with some new families. We have been at this gym several years and like it but lately i want to scream at some parents and say " what is wrong with you???" I mostly trynto avoid the waiting room.
