[quote=Anonymous]Similar situation for a friend’s daughter who was an extremely talented gymnast. It was her life for years and my friend spent every day at the gym, and weekends at competitions. But as a teen, she suffered from health issues, anorexia, and ultimately stopped growing/very delayed puberty. Her parents made the ultimate decision to end her gymnastics career (despite the time and thousands $$ they spent). She switched to dance and cheer, and performed in high school on a large team. Ultimately, my friend said her daughter was relieved once the pressure was off and she enjoyed a normal life, focused on school and excelled, went away to college (instead of plans to train), made a lot of new friends, pledged a sorority, etc. Now she works on Wall Street![/quote]
