I need to vent. I have arranged a meeting with DDs coach this week. I am so disappointed in DDs coach, that if she didn't love gymnastics so much, and begged me to not pull her out, I would have pulled her out.
Dds coach is a female and and has been giving DD a very hard time at practices. She tells DD that she sucks whenever she messes up, she has slapped DD in the leg and stomach, has sat on her in splits, and has threatened to beat DD to death (no joke) if she didn't do her vault correctly. There has been much more, but these incidents stood out to me. I was in the gym observing while this has happened. DD is 13 years old, and training for level 9. Her coach yells at her for having mental breakdowns in the gym, and always asks me why. I am going to tell DDs coach that her methods are not working for my daughter, and we are definitely reconsidering coming back next year. Thanks for listening to my rant, I am just so angry right now.
