Hi Parents,
I finally decided to join CB so I could post as well as learn from others. My dd is a 7 year old training level 4. She will is waiting for the official invitation to join team, but I'm sure it is coming next month (they have fitted her for competition leo and warm-ups). I have some reservations and hope you have advice for me.
We have a quality gym, I trust the coaches, my dd WANTS to do team, and she seems ready skill-wise. But I recently told a friend that letting her do 8 hours a week plus competitions is the parenting decision I really worry about (other than too much TV).
Can any experienced parents help me come to terms with the time, tiredness, expense, loss of other activities, so I can be enthusiastic and say yes when the invite comes??? I know dd loves gym and she's good at it, but I've been known to worry...
