[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If participation is voluntary, why don’t you just opt out for the remaining meets?[/quote] We’re going to. One of the moms in charge was one of the moms of a kid who didn’t like the idea of the same buddy for the entire season, so new buddies are chosen each week. So that lets me opt out since it doesn’t leave one girl without a buddy for the rest of the season.[/quote] Are you opting out because you want to or did your daughter ask for that?[/quote] My daughter said “I wish I didn’t have to do this because it made me feel sad and weird”. [/quote] I’m sorry I don’t understand what made her feel weird?[/quote] I think that’s just how 9 year olds describe negative emotions and/or a reaction to processing the realization that your anticipated pep talk from a teammate ended up being more like a note from a teacher.[/quote] The only thing, weird OP, is your reaction to all of this! Seriously please evaluate why you’re making such a big deal out of this. [/quote]
