[quote=Anonymous]There is absolutely nothing wrong with having siblings do the same sport even when they aren't equally good at it. But if she is really not enjoying it at all, I'd probably consider trying something different. For something that's not a life skill (i.e. swimming) I don't see any reason to push hard on a six year old. There are many other sports/activities she can try. If she does want to learn to play tennis and just needs to learn patience and practice, that's different. FWIW I have three kids and the oldest is the super athletic, good at everything kid. Younger two are extremely unathletic and uncoordinated. They do swimming together but otherwise we aren't pushing too hard on sports for the other two. They do swimming and martial arts. Maybe we will try something else here and there, but I just don't think sports are going to be their thing.[/quote]
