"I see; chess and band are for kids who don't do cheerleading, for whatever reason. Where could a bias like that possibly come from?"

No, students that only participate in chess and band are probably not as athletically talented as a student in cheerleading.

I have already answered these question's numerous times.

With....

IMO a ten year old is not mature enough to be left alone.

Im just waiting for the link that say's my opinion is "right" or FACT for all children and families. That would end the debate. But it wont happen because it was never said.

We agree, It is HILARIOUS!

You have got to be kidding me! What a ridiculous thing to say expecially when you claim your dd is a cheerleader and in the band and enjoy's chess.

If that is true, why did you make the assumption in the first place?

Why is that ridiculous? My point is that a student who only does band or chess or both and doesn't do any other sports is most likely not an athletic person or is not good enough to make a team.

Assumption about what?

BTW, is the wine glass at the end of your name a hint as to who you really are?

I see; only cheerleaders are athletically talented, and of course those who participate in chess and band couldn't possibly be doing anything athletic.
