So both my gymmies came home crying from practice yesterday
ODD is stressed because she hasn't gotten her giants yet. She repeated L6 this year because she didn't have them yet. Weirdly bars was her BEST event at L6 (scoring 9.2-9.4 all year); she even came in 1st at state. She has had a beautiful CH for over a year, but for some reason can't get the giants. First she said it was her timing on her shifting, now she says she making corrections the coach gives her, but is still not getting it. She hates the strap bar and is apparently "too wild" on the regular bar and needs 2 spotters?!
So my question is, do I ask for a meeting with the coach? I totally don't want to go in there and be all "Why's my kid not got this skill yet?" but if there is something else going on, like a fear issue, or lack of conditioning, I would want to know! And does that seem to be an excess time to learn giants after having a solid CH and baby giant?
