Everyone cannot do the pointe. It requires a specific body type and it hurts probably because you are not doing it properly. It will take at least a year of training to do the perfect pointe and initially it hurts a bit. Soon, if you complete the training, it won't hurt anymore.

If you are only wearing demi-pointe shoes then your instructor obviously does not feel you ankles are strong enough for pointe work yet. If you do this then you face the chance of never being able to go on pointe because you have damaged you feet. So stick to demi pointe shoes for demi pointe and wait a while until your ankles are strong enough to go on pointe! PS you should never go on pointe before you are 12 as research has shown that the joints etc. in your feet have not fully developed!
