Proud Parent
I agree with Cher here, although I respect what rbw said. Sometimes fear goes away with a little more practice and confidence. sometimes it doesn't. I think that a thoughtful parent would take that into consideration and that if fear did not subside when steps are taken to work through it, of course you would not force your child to continue. But I think if it's "fixable" as Cher put it, then one should try to fix it, then reconsider.
