[quote=Anonymous]DS 7 year old friend just tried out for travel soccer with the promise that the farthest away the games would be is 1 hour. A 7 year old with 3 practices a week and a game an hour away each week. Yeah, it might not be dieting at 8 but it is pretty similar. For every kid starting travel at 7, or dieting at 8, there is a kid playing rec and another kid who dropped out. The kids going to Bella or the neighborhood ballet school are not going to be dieting at 8 and there are probably far more kids in those programs then serious ballet school that are worried about their weight. So for the kids who want to learn a little bit and twirl around in a tutu, there is probably little risk. For the more serious student, parents need to be aware and focused on what their kid is doing.[/quote]
