[quote=Anonymous]There's no need to lie about her performance. You can find things that you can praise honestly: ("I liked how you did that turn at the end! You looked so beautiful in your tutu! You looked like you were having so much fun! Wow, you have all learned so many things this year!) And you can ask how she felt about it. If she wants to dance again, let her dance again. You can consult with the teacher to figure out what level she should be in (maybe it would be better for her to repeat the same level). But she's a kid. If she wants to dance, let her dance. As a former not-so-great dancer myself, I might add that I never did well learning the routines by memory. There may be other techniques of learning them that would help, if this is something she would like to continue.[/quote]
