However, some of my youngest daughters friends are only in 9th and 10th grade, have been on the all-year travel/club/training/lessons circuit, and as a result are way too muscular. The training and playing schedule has stripped them of their femininity. I don't think developing bodies ever fully recover from this; the huge calves, trunk thighs, chiseled boy-ish backs and broad shoulders are likely going to be with them for life. I can't be the only one a little troubled by this.
If I knew you thought this about my daughter, I would not want her to be your daughter's friend
