SO, this isn't about gymnastics it's actually an acro class my daughter takes. She takes ballet there as it is a recommendation by her coach. She recently asked me to start taking acro and after she begged me for a while I finally gave in and signed her up. I was thinking she'd be with kids her age, actually I wanted her to be with kids her age, but the dance teacher said she was more at the level of the 10 year old and maybe even more advanced and being in class with the 5 year olds she would be bored out of her mind. So, we had class yesterday, my daughter had a great time, did really well. It was her first class and all the other kids have been there since September so she did well considering and after little instruction could do all that the others could do really well. Dance teacher confronted me after class and said we may need to move her up again soon. So that is not the problem, I was proud of her for doing so well of course and happy she had a great time. My problem is I got stares of death the entire class. At first I was like, do I have something stuck to my butt or something?!, why are these ladies looking at me like that?! It was after the death stares went on for 20 mins (and I checked myself in the bathroom, lol, making sure I didn't have anything strange stuck to me) and they were all whispering to each other that I came to realize perhaps my daughter is not welcome because of her age and how well she did. I was sort of shocked by how immature these woman were being, after feeling seriously uncomfortable I moved and sat on a bench around the corner. I heard one woman say, why on earth is that girl here, this is ridiculous. I feel super uncomfortable! I really enjoy watching my daughter but I'm thinking of not hanging around there during class. I just really hope that the attitude of these mothers don't rub off on their daughters.
