    Parents DREADING my DD's first Xcel Meet

    I feel your pain. My advice is to video her. This lets her see her progress and makes it easier for you to not watch. My DD is horrid at dancing. Her team tells her she dances like a robot - lol! She just goes with it. I've learned that if it doesn't bother her, who am I to worry?

    Parents Can other sports help gymnastics?

    I don't know if it is considered a sport but yoga helps and doesn't have the added impact to them.

    WAG Joining Cirque du Soleil when I'm older?

    There are a couple of amusement parks around the country that are looking for people with these skills. Most of them have college kids working during their summer break.

    WAG Manhattan Classic in NYC

    We went the last 2 years. It was fun and well organized. I agree with the above. As a parent, I will say that I really appreciated that wine being sold at the concession stand. ;)

    WAG JO to Xcel level transition

    Thanks! I talked to her coach and it looks like DD will compete Gold this year. She is actually relieved because she was starting to feel too much pressure as a Platinum.

    Parents Gymnastics strong

    I love that our kids are so strong. My daughter wears her Marines shirt she got for pull ups to bed every night. She gets mad when it is in the wash.

    Parents Doesn't want to go to practice.. then has a great time

    There have been a lot of good points made here but I wanted to add another. Sometimes we know we will have fun once we get someplace but we are just so comfy at home that we don't want to go. I was just complaining yesterday that I had to go out with my friends after work. I didn't feel like it...

    Parents When are they supposed to sleep?

    I live in a crazy sport town. All sports go this many hours - all year round. In the other sports, they are considered separate seasons but they all have 4 seasons year round with crazy practice hours and weekend tournaments. It is hard to find a sport just for fun. Most kids are on 2 or 3 teams...

    WAG any experience with tibial plateau fractures?

    I'm so sorry to hear that! I'm a year out trying to recover from a TPF. There is a FaceBook group Tibial Plateau Recovery that has tons of information on this injury. There are different catagories of TPF depending on the severity. Did she have surgery? If so, how many plates and screws. It is a...

    Parents 2nd Meet of the Year.....the flu bug

    Ugh - my daughter just had a meet like that! My daughter just had her first meet and threw up in the parking lot beforehand. She said it was just nerves but she got worse as the meet went on. Her coach wouldn't let her compete beam because by then she couldn't even walk straight. Ends up she had...

    WAG At least she has goals...

    I love hearing everyone's aspirations! I might jump on the being a bear bandwagon when I grow up! ;) My daughter has decided that she will be getting a full ride to Boston College and spend summers down at Disney World, training to be the future CEO of Disney. She said she will take being the...
