i dont think theres anything wrong with girls working on the non robot related project.... its just that if all of the girls are tending towards them, theres probably something to be fixed

most teams a few different kinds of kids on the team.... theres the dedicated core that enslave themselves during the building period..... theres the kids who know whats going on and help, but robotics isnt really thier priority.... and then theres the brand new kids and some other kids who participated previously but still didnt catch on.... the of kids that just kind of stand around and watch because they dont understand everything just yet..... the better the team (i mean in terms of being supportive) the faster these kids pick stuff up...... but if those kids are ignored too long, nobody teaches them how to use a tool or explains anything to them, they will either leave the team, or self motivate and find something else to do

most robotics teams are made up of mostly male mentors and students... when those mentors or veteren students are looking to reach out to one of the new students, they are less likely to pick a girl

all of the other committees within robotics are probably mostly run by females..... by this i mean PR, spirit, fundraising..... they are more likely to reach out to the girls

as long as people are happy its fine...... but sometimes girls on FIRST teams can get stuck in a rut where they want to build, and they want to do something else too, and its just easier to do that something else because thier friends are doing it or something

all im saying is that if you have a lot of girls on your team and none of them are working on the robot, some of them probably want to.... try to encourage them
