[quote=Anonymous]I think like gymnastics and dance is part illusion or fantasy. While there are some girls that genuinely do like it and are well suited for it-the rest seem to like the idea of it. Thery the feminine ideal activities girls are socialized to feel like they need to like. The beautiful ballerinas on stage, the intricate flips of gymnastics are idolized by young girls. Most kids are not going to enjoy an activity they are not good in and are not progressing in. The exception is always dance and gymnastics- girls stick around in these for the illusion. Personally, I’d do a slow fade from it. Look for activities she can be good in and progress. It will serve her much better in the middle and high school years to find something now she can stick with and be good in[/quote]
