[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before OP goes worrying about the kid's high school and college career, let's recall she's 8. She will be heading nothing. The greatest danger to her is a collision with another 55 lb girl. Just let her play; you can worry about concussions when they actually become a threat. [b]IF she even likes the sport[/b].[/quote] OK. Let assume that she plays today and six years later, at the age of 14+, she still loves playing soccer. What will you do, tell her not to play?[/quote] Perhaps you just worry about your kid and I'll worry about mine. [/quote] When they start heading you and DD can do the research and then decide. I mean, my 7 year old really likes Gymnastics. I know that if she's talented and works hard enough, she'll need to be at the gym training 6+ hours per day in a few years. I am not up for that at all. I have no plans to home school her etc. Does that mean she shouldn't do gymnastics now? No. She also likes horseback riding. To get serious about it, you really need to own or lease a horse. Not going to happen. But happy to let her progress at the moment at the local public barn.[/quote]
