Yes, I don't worry to much about those "bad things" of which Dunno speaks happening in a crowded gym, but it's more about how they are treated, how corrections are given, etc. My DD would not tell me if she was being mistreated by a coach because she would not see it that way. She would think she must deserve to be treated badly because she believes that her coaches walk on water, so if there was some sort of problem, it must be HER fault. Also, she wouldn't tell me because she would be afraid I would pull her out of there, and she wouldn't want to quit gym for anything. Yes, I would like to think that I would pick up on it through her behavior and moods, but she is going on 13 so "Moody" is her middle name.Dunno, I think there is a greater concern among parents that coaches are not emotionally/psychologically abusive to kids. I think even you would admit that is a bigger problem in high level sports than it should be.
