So my DD (9) is doing T&T now as Ive posted before. And she loves it. She does have days where she wants to go back to gymnastics. We have talked about her going back after her season of T&T. But heres the thing. The desire to go back is very... fleeting and when she does talk about going back she begs for metroplex. Occasionally texas dreams or WOGA. But mostly Metroplex. She had a friend start going there who is doing extremely well. BUT her friends love for gymnastics is strong. DD's dad says Im crushing her dreams. He seems to think a big name gym could be the thing to "rekindle her passion" But my thing is, I know Metroplex to be very serious, and hard. I am in no way trying to bash this gym. They obviously do very well and DD's friend truly seems very happy there. I just feel like a gym like Metroplex is probably the LAST place DD needs to be when shes struggling to just keep her passion for the sport. I feel like if she does go to gymnastics, maybe it needs to be at a smaller gym with a more gentle approach. Thoughts? I would love to hear from parents with kids at big name gyms.
