Proud Parent
DD just started gymnastics classes 2 weeks ago. I took her to open gym before signing her up to see if she was interested in it enough for classes. She only goes 1 hour a week, and still wants to go to open gym. Its all ages and alot of the older girls are there. Call me paraniod but I usually walk around with her so I can watch her on balance beam or bars. Point out where NOT to stand when girls are on something. Just get her used to whats okay. There is only 1 coach there and I dont expect them to watch her. Last Saturday we went and there and had a few younger kids, one still in diapers running around with parents sitting on the bleachers talking. I don't know how many times older girls were stopping tumbling on the tramp or stopped praticing beam cause little ones could have been landed on. So am I missing something? Like no parents ever on the floor? If so I don't think Im okay with DD going to open gym anymore. There is no sign or anything written anywhere, and no coach has asked me not to walk with her.
