[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you can tell early on if your child has coordination, focus and commitment from a young age for certain sports; that being said, ability could still change. We still did dance and gymnastics for fun for DD for a couple years but now as we head intohomework time age (2nd)- I am canceling out many things and leaving them for summer camp fun. I don't want to invest their time or mine driving and coordinating if I see no talent. [/quote] I hope parents who feel this way find sports that their kids are good at, even if not great, and encourage them to stick with it (as long as the kid reasonably enjoys it). It is extremely valuable for kids, especially girls, to be part of a team and develop athletic ability (general fitness, coordination, flexibility, endurance, etc.). Just because you don't want to be bothered to take a non-Olympic hopeful to lacrosse isn't a reason to take him/her out.[/quote]
