I have always subscribed to the martial art philosophy that "kids" should never be "black belts". If you look at the traditions becoming a black belt was also a sign of becoming an adult. I think too often I see schools speed ranking kids up. Sure, you might know the moves, but do you understand the thought behind it, etc etc. This isn't a dig at Fiona, just a random burst of comment that your post brought out.
She'll be fine, and seasoning is a good thing. Trust me I know :)
