Not sure if this is the right place to post but need some advice. Dd2 is 11 nearly 12. She does an activity outdoors on water most weeks, and really enjoys it. She started this by herself and has made some friends and has been going regularly about six months. She loves it, gets up early every weekend excited to go despite not being a morning person at all.
Sometimes the coaches are unavailable and there is no session outdoors. There are also weekly sessions indoors, we have attended a couple and dd1 has also joined in these sessions. Dd's were due to attend the session together this evening. As the weather is also getting colder I have said to dd2 she may go to more indoor sessions and that dd1 won't be going to all of them.
Dd1 is not well so I have said she's not going. Dd2 has now had a complete meltdown (tears and everything) saying she's not going as dd1 isn't. Initially said she just doesn't want to go without dd1. Then said various other reasons including she might not know anyone, or might fail.
We have had this before with other activities or when original plans have been adjusted. I remember her third session of this activity after a week break she said she didn't want to go with a similar reaction she couldn't give a reason. I said we have paid we are going and forced her to go. Dd actually thanked me for forcing her to go afterwards as she loved it. Any advice on how we can handle these situations or anything we can do to help dd? Overall she's very confident and chatty/outgoing.
