[quote=Anonymous]“Woo hoo let’s see which city it will be at in 8 years so we can plan our travel! “ What is wrong with you people? The kid is 8. Make it a geography lesson. Have fun with it. Cheer her on. stop treating everything like a hopeless slog. The negativity is so strange to me. And yes, you encourage kids’ big dreams. Not because you think they will end up on an Olympic platform. But because they will be encouraged to aim high and try new tough scary things and then as their dreams change as they mature (which will happen naturally) they will still believe they can achieve great things.
