[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this were my kid-I’d allow her to sit out and fully support her in it. I’m so often shocked by the the rigidity of so many of you. I truly don’t get the thought process of where you must be forced to do something you viscerally don’t want to do. It’s not a quality I’d want my kid to learn. It’s not that my kid’s school wouldn’t push back for something similar but I feel confident even at 10yo my DD could advocate for herself on this and if she had to-would face the consequences and own them. [/quote] OP here, thank you. that is my gut feeling- why force her to do something that she really doesn't want to do that has no real benefit? I also see it as an opportunity for self advocacy.
