Okay I'm a rec optional gymnast and I have 3 coaches. I've always liked them but I've started to think that one of them is sort of mean. One time, when we were lining up to do dance, I was talking to my teammates and she got kind of mad at me, I agree I shouldn't have been talking that time. But the next day. I was having a conversation with my teammates but they were also talking and my other coach was telling us just how to correct a dance move or something, and the kind of mean coach put her hand on my arm and said "will you pay attention!" or something like that. And then at a meet, we were warming up on beam, and a younger teammate of mine was trying to pull a mat under the beam, and she asked me to help her, but she said it very quietly so I couldn't hear her, and my coach said "will you help her? do you see what she's doing!"
It's not like she hates me or anyone else on the team, but sometimes she can be in a bad mood. She used to yell at me when I was too scared to do a back walkover on beam or jump to the high bar, but eventually my parents talked to the head coach and she doesn't really do that anymore. But she did used to say that if you fell off the beam during warm up, you had to do 10 push ups which I thought was kind of dumb. I don't really dislike her, and I do agree that I shouldn't have been talking, but do you think that these mean things that she's done are really neccesary? How should I deal with it?
