[QUOTE="slsh, post: 177567, member: 8"] Oh BBK, my heart is breaking with yours. "Kids like me." Poor baby! I hope she does stick with it. Diva has been cheering for 5 years now, and husband has been coaching for 3 (yes, he gets a lot of grief about it, LOL). Down here in the sticks, the girls do do some of the lifts at Tink's age but they're pretty tame and always with spotters. Diva's a big girl so she's always on the bottom, and we hear every year about how hard it is. MB really nailed it on the head in terms of the differences in girls on teams. Every year it's *drama* to the max, LOL. Some cry at the drop of a hat, some can't listen to directions to save their soul, some have a really hard time learning the routines, and there's always someone kvetching about someone else. And every one of those girls had to start out, not knowing the routines or cheers or postures. So they were *all* girls like Tink at one time. I certainly wouldn't *force* the issue after the clinic, but... I hope she will think about it. Poor Tink - if she can stick with it, I think it would be such a positive experience for her. [/QUOTE]
