[quote=Anonymous]I was not allowed to do participate in gymnastics. My mom, who I now understand was extremely anxious, was concerned about the risk of head and neck injuries. It was embarrassing not to be able to do cartwheels like the other girls and I eventually just gave up on all physical activity outside of swim once I was so far behind everyone else. I would gladly allow recreational gymnastics for some basic skill building and coordination, although it wouldn’t be something I would steer a kid to (ditto ballet, competition cheer, etc.). [/quote]
