So dh and I decided that it will be in youngest's best interest to join the new cheerleading gym when they open for next season. I talked to one of the coaches (the one who was youngest's coach for the last 2 out of 3 years.) She was one of the coaches that left (was fired) when this whole brouhaha began. It is sort of a franchise of a gym that started in North Carolina and has I think 14 locations. They tend to send their kids to more well known competitions which is what dd wants. She has been doing this for 5 years now. She started at 4. They will be able to bring in a lot of kids and have a good variety of teams and levels. They will also just be focused on cheer which had been a problem with the other gym. She let me know that they will definitely make sure that they discuss how they won't appreciate drama from the parents or kids. DD came out of practice yesterday a tad upset. She didn't tell me about it till we were driving home. Apparently when they were taking a water break youngest went to put her water bottle down and this other little girl wasn't paying attention and tripped over dd's leg. She was behind her so obviously she wasn't paying attention. Anyway, this other little girl (fair weather friends with the other one), told her basically that she tripped her and started getting snotty with her. 🙄 Now they have a large tv set up with video feed of the gym and I happened to notice this interaction. I said to myself that dd's body language interacting with this kid seemed off, and I noticed this other little girl wiggling her head in that snotty fashion that I abhor and would yell at my kids if I saw them act this way. I knew something was up. I was right. Just so happens that this little girl was picked on by the one she was supposedly sticking up for 2 weeks ago and needed to be consoled by 2 others. As I said, fair weather friends. I told dd not to bother with them and gave her a comeback line if such a thing were to happen again. They are both one and two years younger than her so I hope that next season they will be on different teams.

Sometimes kids also have a short memory span. Maybe they'll both just move on, and it will fizzle out. Until then, if I were DD, I'd just give the other kid a lot of space. Hoping all will be well. From what you've shared about your DD over the past few years, she seems like a lovely person.

Another question,

They have the DDP, But I just talked to my mom and told her that I think she should cancel it because T is being charged as an adult...And I don’t think it is worth the price difference.

If they cancel the dining plan and just do out of pocket, Can he order a kids meal at a qs or ts restaurant if he wants to?

Yes. They're not picky at TS.

They'll also do adult or junior portions of kids entrees at a lot of TS restaurants. You just have to ask.

My sister ordered the shirts for all of the kids, last night. I think it’s really cute and I don’t think he will say that it’s too little kid-ish.
I’m going to try to find a cool one for all of them to wear at Magic Kingdom too, But my kid is definitely not a matching shirt type of Kid...but, who cares. ;)

OK great, I mean he does eat a lot of adult meals at Disney, Just because of the choices, but he doesn’t need to order one at every restaurant he definitely won’t eat it all
B only just recently started eating off the adults menu pretty much all the time. There's still a couple of places where we ask for an adult portion of a kids meal, but he ate kids meals long after he was over 9. They're not picky.

And at QS locations...do whatever the heck you want. No one's gonna know or care. A 40 year old man could eat the kids Mac and cheese and no one would care. Not sure why a 40 year old man would want to, except for @Mr Ferret 88 , but anyway.

A woman just walked by my office walking 7 dogs. How's your day going?
I worked from home today, so I got to work while hanging out with my cats. Also, I moved like five feet from my bed and I was at work.

But after several weeks of it being super slow, this was today...
