Good Morning Everyone..... <br />
<br />
I have a dilemna .........I need your ADVICE &#33;&#33;<br />
McKinley dances  tapp and Jazz, it&#39;s a small fortune for the 8 months but she loves it.. She has this new &quot;cool&quot; kinda hip teacher, long hair dreadlocks... He approached me on Wednesday and asked about her dancing competetive.... All I heard out of his mouth were DOLLAR signs... LOL<br />
So I said we would discuss it and yesterday made a decision to go ahead with it...this would entail a couple of nights a week...<br />
<br />
A few weeks ago we signed McKinley up for a basketball league with the thought this was a Sat AM event... Well she was invited to try out for a select Major team which we took her to last night.. <br />
Let me note that my child was the only one there without &#036;200 basketball shoes , <br />
Well she made the first cut so there is only one more try out to go, EXCEPT they appraoched a few parents ( US) and said after this 2 hour try out she has definatelly made the team....<br />
<br />
The convenyor would contact us about further payment ( Choking at this point ) and with a list of tournaments ..... YES tournaments one is in NY state and the other in New Hampshire...<br />
And proceeds to tell us practice is 2 nights a week, with a game traveling within the region on a Sat...<br />
At this point I was hyperventilating.... the dollar signs going around in my head we making me dizzy.....<br />
<br />
<br />
My question is do I re-mortgage the house to support this ? <br />
 I am kidding...<br />
<br />
My dilema is with her school work ( 5th grade ) is all of this too much... She says she really wants to do it...<br />
But I think this is way to much for a child who JUST turned 10... <br />
Needless to say I missed most of Survivor battleing this out between commercials.....<br />
<br />
I need some outside input &#33;&#33;&#33;<br />
<br />
Do I let her go back to doing just recreational dance or basketball ? DO I let her compete in both ?<br />
This also leaves no time for school sports....
