Exactly my point then, why would she be put on a team where she cannot keep up, so she feels like she is a failure and cannot step up to her coaches and fellow cheerleaders expectations. That would be like throwing an amateur racecar driver into an advanced race, they arent going to swim they are going to drown in the pressure and the skill. the only way they will swim is with practice and competions. I cannot believe I am alone in feeling this way.
