My daughter just doesn't love gymnastics like she used to. She is 14 and is entering her second season as a level 8. She struggled during last season with confidence issues and fear. Up until last season she has always done well. Now it is often a struggle to get her to practice, she will go regularly for a while and then not want to go for a whole week. She says it is not as fun as it used to be. The atmosphere and coaches have definitely changed. New rules popping up all the time that have never existed before. Definitely more competitive. Coaching changes have also played a role and my daughter just does not feel like her coaches care about her anymore. I have discussed these issues with her coaches but have not seen any progress being made. I do not want her to quit and regret it. Not sure what the correct path is and if trying another gym is a good idea. I also do not want to keep forcing her to go if it is not what she wants to do. Any ideas?
Thanks
