Dear Care and Feeding,
For the last few weeks, my husband “Derek” and I have been at odds over allowing our 8-year-old son, “Noah,” to take ballet lessons. Noah has a cousin who does ballet, and over the Christmas holiday we attended her school’s performance of The Nutcracker. Noah was enthralled and eagerly asked if he could take ballet lessons. Noah is extremely shy and I have been trying to find extracurricular activities for him, so I was very pleased that he would take the initiative. I said we would look into it as soon as the holidays were over.
