[quote=Anonymous][quote]You do realize this is that mental health struggles are emblematic of literally every sport at the elite level, correct? Stop bashing figure skating because you or your daughter couldn’t cut it.[/quote] My other daughter competes at the elite level in a non-performance sport. It has its issues, but nothing like the toxicity of figure skating. My figure skater moved to ballet. She had triples, NQS medals, and could hack it physically, but the toxic culture of the sport made her deeply unhappy. When ballet is the healthier option, you know something is truly wrong with a sport. Ballet and gymnastics confronted the problems in their cultures. Figure skating is singularly unwilling to do so.
