One more difference between the kids you're whining about and bashing. They're out riding their horses, and YOU are behind a keyboard with 65,987 posts!!

Location: Beggs, OK | UTAHCANCHASER - 2015-02-25 1:05 PM I just want to add that Chayni has made an impact on kids younger than her already. We have some really good friends and they are all very handy (mom and dad have made the circuit finals and have had horses go to the NFR). Anyway this little girl is only 4 or 5 and just started loping her moms old horse through the pattern. When she heard how old Chayni was she turned to her mom and said "I want to do that, how fast do I need to go!"
She may only be 9 but she is setting a great example for kids younger than her and use that are way older. I know I will be cheering for her.
My five year old is a huge fan of hers now! She's watched her American Semi Finals run over and over since Friday. |

If you don't want to run against kids find a place that has age groups... Don't complain
If you don't like people who who send their horses to trainers.....don't complain. First of all a lot of people make their living training horses. MOST of the time they can fix your problem in a short period of time....I learned that 40 years ago. AND some people have very different goals for their horses than you might have.
If someone is wearing a helmet or using a magic seat and you are worried about it, you are not tending to your business or concentrating on YOUR run.
The people who train for a living and those who rodeo are not complaining.
Face book has gotten absolutely ridiculous. When I stuck up for one of the kids they attacked me. I use a magic seat, helmet and a trainer. Personally, I don't care but kids are a little more sensitive. 40+ year olds picking on kids is not a fair fight, and yes, it is bullying,at least where I come from.

There was a 4 and two 6's ahead of her. She had a nice run today.
The invitational is for those that qualified to The American correct? |

I agree. I read this from begining to end, saw one post made about kids having an advantage due to weight. Yet this thread is up to 12 pages of people squealing as if there's a group of people trying to have kids banned from the American.
Sometimes it must be fun to argue, even if there's nothing there.

There was a FB post made by a couple of teenagers, a bunch of adults got into it and it got really nasty - I think many of the "kid bashing" comments are being spawned from that. There were also a few posts on here regarding young riders, magic seats, and adult tactics/motivations that have spawned some replies. |

There is none, the masses have issues with reading comprehension. What was pointed out were simply facts, and there is your debate not bullying. |

This! I see way more people complaining about people complaining about kids than people actually complaining about kids.

Exactly. This thread has turned into nothing more than a "symptom". |
