[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SafeSport has just published a statement accusing US Figure Skating of promoting a culture of "grooming and abuse." It sounds like they are headed for a Karolyi ranch/Larry Nassar-esque nightmare like USA Gymnastics is currently dealing with. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/2019/03/04/figure-skating-culture-grooming-abuse-probe-safesport/3053528002/ The article specifically mentions pairs skating. I don't find this hard to believe--the gold medalists in Pyeongchang were highly unusual in that Aljona Savchenko was 5 years older than Bruno Massot. Usually it's an older guy and a younger girl, and there's a shortage of male pairs skaters so they can get away with more bad behavior. It's a disaster waiting to happen. [/quote] So talk to yoyr kid. Get counseling regularly. Be aware. But should everyone quit and hide in their homes? No.[/quote]
