[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure. But we are talking about .00000001% . And let's not pretend that the risk of a pitcher blowing out his arm is the same as a ballet dancer with eating disorder. One can be easily repaired, the other deadly. If a pitcher gets signed, league minimum is mid- 6 figures. If a ballet dancer signs, they are making $20,000 tops. [/quote] Then if you agree, just accept that there will always be specialized instruction for all manner of professions, and that some will be drawn to them, despite the risks. There is no need to disrespect the students for whom this is a passion and question their life choices, unless you want to boycott all the professional and semi-professional Nutcracker performances for ever. Or any ballet. As well as National Philharmonic, top notch student orchestras like MCYO, Washington National Opera, etc... [/quote]
