Proud Parent
My daughter is 10 years old and an L5 gymnast. She is struggling at L5 (she just switched from L4 to L5 in Jan), which is to be expected. She has recently grown and is tall for her age - she has lost some of her skills, her kip, her back handspring is not very good. She is complaining that everything hurts when she tumbles (she can't be specific here), she says she doesn't look forward to going to practice, yet when I told her it would be okay if switched sports or didn't want to do it anymore she gets so upset and says she doesn't want to quit - she looks so sad all the time. I feel like she has hit a wall and I want to say the right things to her but I don't know what to say. Have any of you experienced this? If yes what have you done or said to your children to get them through this rough spot.
If she want to stop the sport - my husband and I are genuinely okay with it.
