[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this is the great equalizer. The kids who were at the top of the game at one point start having growth spurts, their bodies change and suddenly the scholarship that mom and dad dreamed of is slipping away. The kids who didn't have that early talent gain ground and surpass them. People develop at different times. you see this in every sport. That is why you want your kid in as many activities as possible because they lose confidence, they grow out of it, literally in some sports. There are certain changes to the body that training and working out can't and won't change to get you back to where you once were. don't pigeon hole your kid into something because when these changes happen, you have nothing to fall back on. [/quote] OP here - she is in multiple sports and certainly there are no dreams of scholarships! But your point about confidence is a good one, particularly for girls. [/quote]
