Well done for her. How old is she? Isn't it a wonderful thing to see, when your dd mastered something?

I know thats what scares me!! Im not worried tho they will NOT let the kids do unsafe stuff!!! The coaches are there as long as the kids need them too

That is good. I think it is reassuring for the parents, they can leave their kids safe and sound in the gym with their coach. And most of them know what they are doing.

Ah right. Well officially at our club they don't do watching, and I can't do it on the Thursdays, since I have 2 other kids at home. But on Saturdays I watch her. The coach lets me, because I do help out with things, like receiving competition money, and other things she needs a hand with. And she knows I do it, because dd sometimes has a bit of a bad attitude, when something doesn't work. There isn't always someone with the girls at one apparatus. Our trainer is by herself. So she helps out where she has planned something new, or where kids need help with still. And the other group of kids do things they can already do. On Saturdays the trainers daughter helps too, usually. And on Thursdays sometimes another mom will help with catching somewhere.
