Cheerleading

Nicholeen, my 13 year old daughter is homeschooled except she takes 1 math class at the local jr high last hour. This week she came home wanting to audition in 4 weeks to be a cheerleader for next year. She really wants to do this and she continually talked about it. 2 nights ago, my husband and I sat down with her and told her no she couldn’t because we don’t trust or know the cheer coaches and we are very careful who we let mentor our children in todays world. We also have heard there can be a lot of drama with the cheerleaders on the team and we said we don’t want her surrounded by that kind of distortion. We also said we don’t want our family to have to serve the cheerleading team but that it should need to serve our family and it wouldn’t work that way. We would have to commit to be to a lot of games and we wouldn’t have freedoms to travel and do as much together as a family. Afterwards, she sat with tears rolling down her cheeks but she excepted the no answer and hasn’t brought it up since. I feel sad for not letting her do this and I need a second opinion to make sure this was a decision based on truth and that I’m not being selfish. Can you give me your opinion? Thanks
