Dreams & Money: I Can't Afford My Kid's Success

This is where we discuss figure skating and skating related items. How did you favourite skaters perform, and so on? However we never speculate on the private lives of skaters, like who might be going out with whom, because that is poison and is not tolerated here. A good guideline is that if it's not publicly announced, in the papers etc. then it's probably best to leave it alone. Is it a gray area? Then write to me and ask.

Dreams & Money: I Can't Afford My Kid's Success

Post by kittykins »

I came across this British video about a young Dance/Pairs team in Britain. Their mothers are trying to fund their careers. I thought it was interesting and a sad reality. It includes an interview with Hamish Gaman, former British champion.
