[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to clarify what "team" does she want to make? Are you talking high school cheer leading? Or and All Star Cheer leading team at a club that competes during their season? Two different things.  If your wife is grooming your DD for High School, in 6th grade then it is obvious that she doesn't have a clue about cheer leading apart from High school. as for All Star clubs, all kids make some team, and by now your DD should have been on a team as try outs are in May and competition will be starting soon.  You say travel sport's team, which sport is she now participating if it is not All Star Cheer leading? You both sound messed up.[/quote]

I believe I have been very clear about this: It's the middle school's cheerleading squad. I have fewer concerns about a competitive cheer team since that doesn't exist to cheer on boys and involves more gymnastics so is actually an athletic endeavor.[/quote]

I am sorry, I must have missed that part.  I didn't even know middle schools had cheerleading squads.  Ours didn't. I wouldn't think Middle School cheerleading would be that serious?  I could understand if your wife was really into All Star Cheer team, and wanted your DD to make a high level team.  I can't comprehend that much drama about Middle School.  In this case you DW is a not quite there.  I mean in MD we have the Twisters F5 who just won the worlds, if she was trying to get your DD into that, then that would be serious.  This is some kind of overreaction from your wife.  Please show her my post. Signed, mom of a serious high level All Star and High School cheerleader.[/quote]
