[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter did it. It wasn't my favorite choice but she wasn't interested in any other sports. It kept her active and she got a great group of long lasting female friends. A lot of the other cheer moms had the same experience. The only issue is that if she does competitive cheer there is a greater risk of injury because they do some dangerous stunting. [/quote] I'll add that she is a young adult now and very much a feminist who doesn't regret it at all. [/quote] I did competitive cheer and would rather have my daughter or SON (boys cheer too you know!) on the sidelines at a football game than doing competitive cheer or gymnastics. Cheer is completely a team sport and a team bond, which is nice, compared to the individualism of gymnastics or tennis or parts of swimming. That is a great learning experience, as is keeping active.
