Brennen handed his 4-H book in on Sunday. Turns out the women judging his age group are 2 people that really don't like me. They are rude ^&tches. I'm hoping to heck that their dislike of me won't carry over to their judging, cause I'd hate Brennen to have to go through that. It doesn't help that the head leader knows that we can't stand each other and still picked them to judge that group. But her daughter and Brennen compete with each other over stuff like this, so who knows.
Brennen worked hard on his book and I'd really like it to be judged fairly. I'm hoping they do.

Just have to wait and see. If they mark him down because they do not like you then they should not be doing what they are doing. This is about the kids not their parents or personal feeling they have towards anyone including the kids.. No

She says she can judge without descrimination. I hope so.
They will phone here for a load of sand for their arena and refuse to talk to me. So we haven't hauled them the sand yet. I think they both know alot, but the one is super opinionated. She believes you and I are both entitled to our opinions, but if they are not the same as hers, then we are wrong. She was our instructor for 5 lessons the first year we started the 4-H club. When I went to her with some parent concerns regarding the basics such as holding reins properly, she told me she taught that at the first lesson, if they missed it or didn't pick it up, was that her fault. She also told a 13 year old girl she didn't know how to ride (made the kid cry). Umm, that is exactly why she was at lessons, to learn. She also told people that our club sucked and we had no business on horses. Once again, club full of beginners, thank you muchly.
We had a parent meeting to discuss whether to keep her on as a instructor. Didn't invite her because some of the parents found her too intimidating. They asked me specifically not to invite her. I told her why we were having the meeting without her and her reply was "intimidating? I'll show them intimidation".
I don't think they're bad people. Just need to lighten up a bit. I'm probably worrying for nothing, but he worked so hard on his book, plus with Sandy getting hurt, this last few weeks has kinda sucked for him.

Unfortunately this is life. Brennen will be ok, as long as he knows he did his best and mom and dad are proud. Kids are tougher than you think.
I hope the gals do judge fairly and keep the adult stuff to the adults. It wont be the last time he runs across this in life. I wish him the Best of Luck!
