[quote=Anonymous]It was my original idea to have my daughter play soccer. Left to her own devices, she would sit around all day and watch TV. So if you asked her about soccer, she might express the idea that she would rather be watching TV. When she's actually playing, she enjoys it. When she is actually practicing, she mostly enjoys it. And she's very noticeably improved. But I think it's important for people to have daily physical activity. I've given her other athletic options and she prefers soccer, so soccer it is. I don't think 8-year-olds always know what's good for them; that's why we parents get to make the decisions. [/quote]
