Testing Cycle Ratios!!

[Hawkmoon]

We used to have ours open but switched to closed. Mainly because of the kids. I realize it's nice for parents to watch their kids but the main reason we did it is because those same parents like to criticize others. Parents can be pretty deluded when it comes to their kids and wonder why little their little Jimmy didn't pass when he is clearly better than Bobbie.

Classes are always open to watch so they can see their kids there and 1st dan gradings are usually open to all.

An item I have been very aware of when watching my son in his gradings, I strikes me as rude, impolite (...and so the negative words keep going!)

I bite my tongue as its not my place to comment, I leave them to carry on isolating themselves with the outburst!

The only thing I note and wish I could change is the shame and embarrassment the child feels and shows as 'mum' or 'dad' loose the plot over something.
