Subject: Dance can be a very positive thing.
In reply to: indiccarose 's message, "how about dance moms?" on 09:58:56 04/06/03 Sun

I'm all for children having extra-curricular activities. But what you are describing is total overkill in my opinion. Driving to dance class once a week is one thing, but when it becomes so all consuming that it interferes with school performance (which I strongly think it is in this scenario) and family, it's time for it to go.

There are professions where a strong background in dance would be beneficial, such as professional ballet, acting, etc, but what is the liklihood that your sisters are heading in that direction? I sincerely hope, at the very least, that these girls truly love dancing and it isn't all happening because mom doesn't know where to set the boundaries and the girls don't want to disappoint mom.
