[quote=Anonymous] I don't regret supporting dance I just wish my DD's journey was different. My daughter did combo class from prek to 2nd and flamenco from K-5. By the end of my DD's 2nd grade year I was going through a bad divorce. While I could have technically afforded it my DD didn't seem super interested at the time and my priorities were to make life as easy as I could for myself. I didn't have the time and my DD didn't seem dedicated enough for 5 classes a week (the pre-competition track), which was what the studio wanted. So I switched her to a more low key studio that focused on flamenco exclusively. She loved it and was excelling... and then the studio owner quit teaching to focus on her career as a professional dancer when my DD was in 5th. My daughter still loves dance so she went back to the first studio, is years behind her same-age peers, and wishes I hadn't pulled her out. My regret was letting her get so involved in such a niche activity. [/quote]
