So, I just got told by my friend I am crazy . . . actually there were a bunch of explicit words added in there . . .
Thought I'd do a sanity check with those who know
Jess is 7, going to be 8 in October. 3rd grade.
This month she will be going to the gym 5x a week for 3 hours = 15 hours a week
My thought process is - she loves it, she wants to go, right now with her homework load she CAN do it . . . . if she was home she'd be bouncing off the walls in the living room. She's not doing any other activities. 2 of the days are Fri & Sat - and do not affect school at all. Sat's are morning leaving the rest of the day free. She's having fun - no complaints except for an occasional "play date" request. She does not miss birthday parties for gymnastics . . .
How is this different from a kid that does girl scouts, soccer, dance, etc?
She sleeps well and isn't tired or cranky, no aches or pains . . .
Am I crazy? I don't want her to burn out? any calming thoughts?
