There was more to it than just what’s mentioned here. I am not positive, so you may want to verify. I believe it’s a matter of public info through USASF, so not too hard to find. I believe there were some pretty significant fines along with some other things/training that had to happen. Again...
A few of you mentioned “the victim.” I believe the real victims in all of this are the athletes on that team who are innocent of any wrongdoing and have been there all along with each other working their tails off to make that team great...the athletes who show up and give it 110% of their...
You do you, but I couldn’t see myself being tolerant of any kind of mistreatment of my child. I don’t care who it is or what sexual orientation, etc they identify with. Their orientation has zero to do with it, imho. Identifying as whatever someone identifies as is ZERO excuse for acting crappy...
Wow. She bullied your child in a public forum over a posh pony and you’re still supporting.
I personally don’t care if a person is gay, trans, bi, etc, etc, etc. I think humans are beautiful and deserve rights and respect, always.
What I DO care about is if that person is in fact a bully...
It’s sad how many people are ready to line up to drag somebody based on nothing but tweets and “he said, she said” stories that can’t even be proven definitively. That’s really kinda scary, actually. I bet people are reading this thread and forming their own “opinions” about a program based on...
Update: CP's MRI came back positive for a deep ganglion cyst between the wrist bones last Tuesday and she had it surgically removed on Thursday. Almost one week of her 6 weeks away from tumbling and stunting is done. 5 more weeks to go! Thanks for the advice and input!
My CP's don't show as lumps but instead the doctor thinks they are deep between the bones in her hand. She said they can't reach those to aspirate them. It's crazy. She was absolutely fine, then one day she woke up like this and it won't go away! No injury that she knows of... Weight bearing...
Hey...
Tell me about dealing with wrist pain. My CP likely has a ganglion cyst in one or both wrists, and she can't put pressure on the right one at all. Anyone have experience with these? Thanks!
Thank you!
God did bless me with it, as it turns out. I was shown the real value of my life, and completely changed my plan after that. I realized I wasn't living up to my full potential, so I got my ish together and did a complete 180° turn with my grades, relationships, and everything. Life is...
I get what @quietmom was saying about misunderstanding how kids become victims of human trafficking. Most are groomed over a period of time, and there are a myriad more things to watch out for, for sure. It can be much more complicated than a snatch and run. I appreciate that.
I also, however...
Nobody is belittling anyone here that I read.
Maybe we should go ahead and turn our attention back to uniforms in this thread, because I don't like reading folks being ugly to each other.
I hear you...and as a general rule, we do try our best to avoid that here. I believe the intent here was concern and not shaming or ridicule in any way, so that's probably why it even came up as a mention.
I agree with you, Joel. We talk so much about expectations of our girls that are being put out there by the media, advertisers, etc all the time. Yes. These expectations sometimes do lead girls to unhealthy habits and unrealistic expectations of themselves. One girl who is not naturally small...
You could probably spit and hit one of these gyms from the other if you really tried, they're so close to one another! Good for them for joining forces!
About buns...
Some mini aged kids' arms aren't long enough to keep their natural ponytails from hitting the mat when they tumble. Once, one of our gym's mini teams was given a tumbling deduction at a comp for every time a kid's hair touched the mat. The coach had them do buns the next day for...
To add. We got ours to:
1. Save time!!! It generally took me about an hour to an hour and a half to get her hair done to standard. Now it will take 10 minutes.
2. Save her hair!!! It was so damaged after cheersport, I couldn't get her tease out! I had to go to the salon with her for help, and...
