[quote=Anonymous]This is not a rec program, but my kids Tae Kwon Do teacher can get too harsh sometimes. He is very strict and has high expectations, which is fine. But, I have noticed on a few occasions that he will really lose it on a kid and yell and scream at him/her. He's never really gone off on one of my kids, but I've felt uncomfortable when he has done it to other kids. These episodes seem to come more around belt test or tournament times when he's trying to get them all to focus and be prepared for the event. He has reprimanded my kid when he's been goofing off (deserved and appropriate), but I'm not sure how I'd react if he started screaming and yelling and lecturing one of them. My DH thinks I'm overreacting and that the kids need to learn how to handle it. It may be a cultural thing with him, I'm not sure. I don't expect him to be all touchy-feely all the time, but there's a line and to me he crosses it sometimes. [/quote]
