Question: I want to do Ballet but my mom won't listen!.!?
OK, here is the thing!. I want to do ballet (again, i did it last when I was 3)!. I am very interested, and I could pay for the classes!. They wouldn't be every week because I wouldn't have the money, but whenever I even mention it now (ever since I told her I wanted to start it up again) she cuts me off and says"No, I don't have the money and neither does your grandmother!. She already pays for your figure skating!." So I am a serious figure skater and that is part of the reason I want to start to take ballet!. The lessons at the place I am going to are $12!.00 a class!. Which I can handle!. And I would just have to save for a little while so I can get some leotards, ballet shoes( not pointe), tights, and a skirt!. I am responsible enough!. So please help me I seriously don't know how to go about asking her!. Plus I really miss ballet and it is also good for my posture, and balance (That would help out it cheering and figure skating!.)!. Thanks!!!!!!!!! Hope you can help!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

LISTEN TO ME BCUZ THIS WORKS!!! you need to create a presentation!! invest in an easel and a laser pointer and present the pros of your ballet idea to your mother!. explain everything to her in such a way that she feels you've thought everything out!. u might even think abt dressing up for ur presentation!. present it like ur presenting something professionally to ppl in a boardroom!.
WHY THIS WORKS!!!
this works bcuz this will show your mother how serious u r abt taking ballet classes!. she will also feel like she's doing the right thing by agreeing to your proposal!. she might even feel naive abt turning you down!.
REMEMBER: THIS ONLY WORKS IF U WORK IT lol!.

well if u r really serious about wanting to do ballet!.!.!.and u have the money to do it by urself and u have the means of getting there than what is stopping u!.!.!.!.!.warning this might cause serious grounding!!!! So keep trying to get her to let u! also so 1 reason she might not let u is b/c if u r a serious figure skater than maybe she is afraid u'll lose focus or might not have enough time for homework or just over work urself!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Ask your mom for the last time!! Don't make her angry and don't say anything that would make her feel bad or hurt!.Say that "you have to give me anything for my b'day, grant me my dream as a gift"please!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.
i really wish you good luck and do good as a figure skaterWww@QuestionHome@Com
You should explain to you mom how important ballet is to your figure skating, and how affordable the classes are (12 bucks is a good deal)Www@QuestionHome@Com
tell her to give you money for christmas and birthday and spend it on your ballet stuff!.
but ballet is most effective if it is every week so!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Pick one ballet or figure skating!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
well you dont really need classes for ballet!. they help but honestly you can do the same thing with proper stretching!. you can do ballet at home too!. just grab a chair or table and use it!. if you have no idea what to do with ballet then look up videos on youtube or go to your local library!. i went to ballet class for the same reason and i didnt really see any improvement!. now i just do it on my own, but i focus more on off-ice jumping and stretching!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
