My 8 year old son loves to dance, he's always tapping hs foot to music or bopping around to music. He has decided to go to the after school dance club which I dont have a problem with, infact to me whats the problem a boy likes to dance. However a few of his classmates say he's a girl and some male firends of mine think its too girlie. He also plays Rugby, football, Table Tennis, Basket Ball & Judo. What do you think?
No I don't think its a problem at all, especially if it is something that he seems to have an aptitude for, you never know, he might be the next Billy Elliott which would be great, although I hope that he gets more support from his family than Billy did. Furthermore, it sounds like he enjoys dancing, together with a range of other activities and that it is by no means his exclusive interest. At the end of the day, I think we should encourage our kids to pursue their interests and talents, I would ignore your male friends, they are being old fashioned.
