I am sick of adults commenting on my DDs height! She's 4'10 and starting optionals this year, a perfectly normal and healthy height and weight.
I realize that we live in a part of the world where women and girls are of short stature and are possibly slower to mature but that doesn't mean my kid is in any way abnormal given *her* genes or that she is destined to be 6'5" like her dad...SHE'S ADOPTED.
I am tired of biting my tongue.
I am tired of the bars not being adjusted for the 'taller' girls so DD has to work twice as hard not to tap them (straddles aren't allowed).
I shouldn't feel like I have to explain to nosy Nancy that my kid's already gone through puberty so there's not much upward growth left!
Ugh.
I believe only the 8-10s are allowed to do their glides straddled. It's gonna be a long season.
