[quote=Anonymous]Middle school is absolutely the time to take electives that interest you. If she doesn't like French, she can switch to Spanish in high school. If she doesn't like drawing, maybe she'll take painting later on. Giving her some freedom here isn't going to harm her future in any way and may enrich it. FWIW, I took French from 7th grade and into college. I work in international agribusiness and am the only fluent French speaker in the company. It has opened many doors for me and helped my progress. Spanish may seem practical, but it may not be as beneficial as you'd think. [/quote]
