    Parents Advice on Resolving GK Leotard Issues?

    I was wondering if I should contact them too. My dd state leo last year was the shiney fabric and it has only been hand washed gentle soap and all of the silver shiney is gone. It has happened to all the girls in gym. I just think that if you pay $60 for a "state" leo it should hold up to...

    Parents College Gymnastics

    Me and my girl went to Ball State (IN) vs Florida last weekend. We watched from the corner that Bridget Sloan sprained her ankle. It was a tiny venue but she absolutely loved the experience.

    Parents Love/Hate relationship of gymnastics

    Believe me I know. All of the above. I try to remain level headed and try to prepare myself for when "it" hits the fan. Right now it is just frustrating because I hear the other parents saying she gets favoritism and she really doesn't she just works hard, doesn't skimp on hours at the gym and...

    Parents Love/Hate relationship of gymnastics

    Love = watching littlebit blow everyone in her gym out of the water. Practice and meets. Hate= listening to moms say she's only better because she is a natural. (What does that mean anyway?) Hate= having to smile at those moms and say " she works hard, and wants to be the best". Love=...

    Parents Getting a complex?

    Update: We decided against the gym in Cincinnati, dd was scoring comperable to the other girls her level, and many of them have been competing for 2-3 years. We were going to just let it go for this year because when we called the "invite only " gym in Indianapolis they said team was full...

    WAG Dh thankful for gymnastics

    My husband said those exact words just Wednesday night while filing her callouses. He is super supportive and because of our other kids new sport practices he hadn't got to watch out dd in several weeks, he went Wednesday and couldn't believe her progression since moving to l4.

    Parents Getting a complex?

    Oh my !! So Thankful for all of the responses. Right now we think this gym is the best fit for our family. We will probably discuss and reassess the situation before competition starts.

    Parents Getting a complex?

    Oh they say it to our faces (me and my husbands) And they are not rude by any means. All of them seem to be genuine, but I think it is odd:-/. My dd has talent and I can see that but like you said I can't imagine saying " hey your daughter is better than this gym" It just seems odd that gym...

    Parents Getting a complex?

    I still consider us to be fairly new to our the gym. Dd had been "on team" officially for 1 year now and was in rec classes just a few months before that. I have joined the " gym moms" group and we talk at every practice. There isn't a huge amount of drama, but there is some. I would...

    Parents What the heck does natural talent really mean...?

    This is exactly how I feel about my dd!! She is excelling at a much higher rate than the other girls. ( her lowest score ever 34.150 average for rest of girls may be 30.5) But she a super hard worker, will NOT skip practice for anything. She isn't one of the girls that always needs a drink, or...
