DD(L3) has States on Sunday. Her practice schedule is Monday and Thursday 3 hours each, and Friday - 4 hours, 4:30-8:30. And there is an extra 2-hour practice on Saturday, but because it's an optional practice and costs additional money, she only goes there 1-2 times a month, and she usually doesn't go if she has a meet on Sunday, because I want her to relax the day before a meet.
So, this Friday they have "kids night out" at school. They do this a few times a year, where the kids go to school from 6:30 to 9:00 pm, play games, dance, watch a movie, etc. Originally I told her no, because it's your last practice before States. And it's not like it's the last KNO this year, there will be another one in May. But she really wants to go.
So, I'm thinking maybe she could go to practice from 4:30 to 6:00, and then go on Saturday for additional 2 hours? The problem is, because of the rotation schedule, if she only goes for 1.5 hour on Friday, she will only be able to work on floor, and maybe vault. And on Saturday they only work bars, vault, and some tumbling on the floor (the beam coach is not there on Saturdays). So, she won't be able to work on beam, and that's an event that she could use some extra work on.
What should I do? Would you let your DD go to this school thing, or insist on going to practice?
