The "getting along with other parents" thread has got me wondering--in your area or at your gym, how much of the family typically attends the meets? Does it change as you go up the levels? On my daughter's L3 team, the trend seems to bring the entire family including both parents, siblings not old enough to be left at home alone, and often grandparents. Tinker Bell's dad and I both attend, but we have decided not to torture the grandparents by inviting them. They already put in their time at the annual piano recital.
