    Parents DD is going to make an interesting coach someday...

    She and her little sister (not a gymnast) are "playing gymnastics" in the living room, DD is playing the coach and a teammate. "Coach" just told her little sister "well, you're winning a little, I'm winning a lot....so you might want to do better than that" The truth hurts.

    (First post! But need advice!) DD's gym just got a new head coach at the start of the summer.
