[quote=Anonymous]DD is 16 and has been in ballet since she was three. This summer she has been accepted into a summer intensive ballet program away from home. It is a good thing in the sense that it was a highly, highly competitive program and DD really wanted to get in. In a million years, I never suspected that she would be accepted or I would have tried to put the brakes on this. It is a bad thing for me because I fear her falling into eating disorders (being with ballet dancers and away from home for the first time) and I simply never suspected that it was possible for her to have a future in a field like ballet. She is going (leaves on Sunday) but I was wondering how other parents deal with kids who may excel in something they simply didn't want them to excel in! And also, most importantly, what can I do to make sure she is staying healthy while she is away? [/quote]
