This happened to my child more than once. Threats to send girls to work out with the baby teams if she didn't pull a difficult skill or complained of pain were common. I don't know that I think that qualifies as "abuse," but it definitely is not a growth centered environment, and it is VERY COMMON at high level elite gyms.
I’m sorry but that is abuse. It’s verbal and emotional abuse!! Period.
