[quote=Anonymous]OP, I haven't waded through 14 pages of responses, but with my kids, a physical activity is a must. For health, both physical and mental. Physical activity is a great way to blow off steam, take a break from studies, screens, etc. I'd tell her she has to pick something, for her soccer off-season. She may not be able to make that school team if her physical abilities decline. And with the heavy course load she's taking, she needs an outlet. If you're near a YMCA, take her there to visit and see if she wants to work out there, take a class. Or another gym. Rec Dept fitness classes. Work one on one with a trainer. Phrase it all in terms of physical health, nothing about appearance. She may not drop a pound, but she'll be working on keeping her body strong.[/quote]
