“Only time will tell.” If you see her in ice skating competitions on TV, I guess her Mom’s efforts will have paid off.
Everyone thinks their kids are going to be “stars” at something. Our kids were into school, golf, tennis, baseball, football, basketball, ice skating, horseback riding, music, etc., etc., and excelled in all–and this was long before the “tiger parent” revolution.
Eventually they had to decide what they wanted to do in real life–and that’s when you know for sure if your parenting efforts have really paid off. They seemed to for our kids, because all are self-sufficient–in their desired professions.
Apart from all parental efforts, there are many “wild cards” in life, and from the real life examples I’ve seen, there appears to be about a 50/50 chance kids will achieve what they want to achieve and succeed in the “real world.”
