[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter rode for three years. It was outrageously expensive and time consuming. I was happy when she moved on to other things. [/quote] What’s expensive? The lessons and equipment, or competing/ owning a horse? I’m just comparing it to music, which I did at a pretty high level and my child seems to want to do also. It can add up. What I like about it is that you can enjoy it for your whole life, collaborate in ensembles, learn discipline and growth mindset through daily practice, and participate in a musical community. This definitely has the community aspect but it doesn’t seem to have daily practice unless you get super serious and buy a horse. So if DC does it for a few years, is it basically just having an expensive pet and learning mutual respect for animals etc.? [/quote]
