The fact she's been trying to get the kid into dance says alot here, it was never the kids choice of hobbie, mommy wanted her to be a dancer, little child wants to not pick any of the other dance choices her mum has been shoving in her face for month/years since she was a birth concept, mommy is shocked that the kid won't do as she wants it to do now that its brain developed a wee bit from mindless sack of crap to slightly self fuctional.

Just another case of a Moomy trying to live vicariously through her child.
On the positive side, my parents were always okay with me choosing my own hobbies and recreation.
But I had real parents, regardless of their shortcomings.....

But Mom has lots of body issues, and from comments she's made in conversation with me in the past, I've concluded that she has written off ballet as an anti-feminist breeding ground for eating disorders. She would feel horrible about herself if SHE had to take ballet; therefore, she hasn't wanted her daughters to study it.

After I saw this I thought, maybe its a little to the side of that, what if mommy, feels bad about having to go to and be at ballet while daughter dances, because of the other moms? If she really had got body image issues, and most ballet mums are ex ballet themselves trying to relive it through their kids, then they would probly still have image and eating issues themselves, if she's no super model and thinks she relates more with an ugly duckling, being around those people would be hellish, even if they didn't judge her themselves, she would feel bad just being near them.
