Wouldn't be our HC any longer if that happened.
What would you think of a HC telling an 11 year old that she's a disappointment?
She just competed L4 and is working L5 skills plus giants on the strap bar. She apparently wasn't making the nice hollow shape.
Not good, and that's the sort of thing that goes in on some of the gyms around here. There is no pleasing some of the gym owners no matter what the child does.
I don't think everything has to be sunshine and roses, but in my book it would be appropriate to criticize the skill or form and show the child how to fix it. When it becomes a negative comment about the child being stupid, lazy, will never be good, etc., that is just not ok. And some of these children are very young...
In our case, it is a YMCA program, so HC doesn't own the gym.Unless the HC owns the gym...
I actually did not hear it with my own ears and acknowledge that it could have been more "I'm disappointed with how you are working this skill."
Are they native English speakers? Because I have learned over time that if they are not, sometimes things come out that make you think "OMG WTH?!" but it is not the intention- things get lost in translation, ykwim?
