There is one thing that any one child would NEVER want taken
away from them, either a toy, sport, clothing, (e.t.c.) Something that they
truely and dearly love. The ones who will take it away from them is USUALLY
parents. After something has been taken away that is very important TO THEM
they become upset and angerd. But 90% parents know that there is nothing they
can do because they are just a child. When I got angry as a very little girl I
wanted to not talk to my mom for a day, but we all know that is impossible
(trust me I tried it, it doesn't work) Caring parents can't stand to see their
child upset and some parents think dicipline is a key factor. As a 13 year old
there is one thing that I cannot live
without and that is gymnastics.
If anyone knows me they would know that I do not curse or
swear (not because of religion) Arguments are so much less intense because of
this. Today my mom basically took away all my goals and dreams. She think she
is doing it for the good but it is really for the worse.
So my mom wants me to do a Certificate of Merit exam (piano
exam) I have to memorize two pieces and use music for one. Also a very hard
theary test. She thinks gymnastics is taking up too much of my time. Truth is I
HATE PIANO she will not let me quit and it sucks. She does not realize how
fricken hard I work and how much I enjoy this sport. Yes it is about 6.30 hours
a week, but I do have competitions. Now my mom is forcing me to do an hour of piano practice every day
which is 7 HOURS plus a lesson!!!! HOW can gymnastics be taking up my time when
it is PIANO!
Anyway overall message here, please please please please please
please please please please please please please.. parents do not do something
without thinking about it, it could ruin someones self confidence,
goals/dreams. If you have kids please let them do one sport just one ...
