there are LOTS of age groups in lots of regions in which the same dancer wins over and over and over again. It happens.If you were ever in BON's age group, your kid had NO chance of winner. Ever. Not everyone is a winner, or even a podium placer. The sooner your kid realizes that, the better. What will your excuse be when your kid doesn't get into a the top college of her choice? Or doesn't get the best internship, or the best job? Who will you scapegoat then. Your kid never got on a damn podium, but now wants to quit because of who the WINNER was? Umm, she seems to have jumped a few unrealistic spots. Teach your kid to be realistic in life. The U14 winner did not stop your kid from never being on a podium before. You are just scapegoating. It sure isn't going to help her in life.
