Need to Vent!

Ok here goes!

What is it with riding instructors who think they are all that and a bag of chips and think it is appropriate to yell at young riders and tell them their horses are worthless and they need something new!!! I understand that if a horse is not appropriate then yes the issue must be raised.......but not to the child!!!! Talk to their parents and NEVER say anything detrimental about their current horse in front of the child. I don't care if it is the ugliest, nastiest buck toothed, knocked kneed horse you ever saw, it is still that child's pride and joy!!!!!

I really don't want to go into the details of what brought this up at this time, but I just had to vent a little!

Amen! I can't agree with you more! What gets into adults sometimes. Often, I think they are just cowards and don't want to face a parent because a parent will stand up to them.

Either way, you are 100% right! You go ahead and vent, I'll listen :)
