[quote=Anonymous]The expectation is you are in for the recital and nationals. They can't reconfigure now (unless you told them about the recital a while ago). I think she needs to finish the year. You signed her up for a dance competition team at age 9, 10 and 11. That's kind of on you. If she's not into it and you clearly aren't into it, then no harm in stopping for next year. But a kid that enjoys the hotel and friendship part is not unusual. My DD is on a competitive dance team. I kind of think the whole thing is stupid and doubt it will lead to anything past high school. But she enjoys it, the friendships are meaningful and we can afford it. It's good exercise and good for her emotionally. There's a lot a kid can get out of it, even if they're not best on the team.[/quote]
