[quote=Anonymous]I think you can certainly assess your child's interest and commitment, but at age 12, this decision is yours. Most people wash out of this kind of super elite pursuit -- sports, music, whatever. And what they lose along the way is a chance at normal teenage life, including an education and developing other interests. Obviously you don't want to deprive your future superstar of his big break, but it may not turn out that way and the consequences will mostly fall on your child. Are you willing to take that risk?[/quote]
