 the male dancer
written by Tom             on 05.01. at 21:39:53 - as answer to: my son wants to learn ballet by sarah>My son who is 12 is interested in learning ballet.Whilst I am keen to encourage him in an interest in the arts ,I am concerned in case he is teased and picked on at school if his school friends find out he attends ballet classes. You've heard of the "ballet mom"? Well, the ballet dad is worse--atruly pathetic case. This is the man who, as a boy, wouldn't takeballet, either because he thought it was too "girly," or because hewas afraid of being teased & hectored. So now, this poor guy hasseen his daughter taking classes, he's discovered what ballet isREALLY like, & the reason he's pathetic is that he's *kicking*himself for having let that precious opportunity slip when he wasa boy. Don't let this happen to your son. Tom Parsons Answers to this message:
