[quote=Anonymous]Has she taken any classes in the past? If you've signed her up for stuff and she doesn't like it and resists going, don't make her. Wait and try again in the summer. But if she's never taken a regular class, I'd see if you can find something that aligns with an existing interest and give it a shot. She might just be scared of trying something new or being in a new environment, and need to learn how to move through that fear to see if she might enjoy it. I had a very shy kid who was not initially excited about activities but then finding a couple she liked wound up being part of the key to helping her to build confidence. It's totally okay to wait if she's just not ready, but if the issue is just fear of the unknown, this is actually a great low-stakes way to help demystify that for her.[/quote]
