When I was 7-9, I went to a summer camp each year that gave me the opportunity to ride ponies (there was an age limit for the horses and I wasn't old enough, and didn't get to go to the camp when I was old enough). I loved it and the instructor told me I was a natural, and I'm pretty sure she was telling the truth because she didn't say it to the other kids lol and I even got to help clean their hooves, feed them, etc. which was fun to me. But if I got a horse (which I probably wouldn't since I don't intend to live on a farm and wouldn't want something I can't have with me), I wouldn't just go "I read about horses as a child and rode ponies three separate times!!!!!". I would have someone help me until the horse and I were right together...I would be willing to learn more...I wouldn't have other people riding it the moment I got it, and I certainly wouldn't be judging them like a jerk while they are riding. I might know a lot about horses and have ridden ponies before (which are different from horses anyway), but I'm not an expert.
Missy's being ridiculous with this. It's ok to learn and receive help until you get the hang of things...
That is a great point. She needs to consider her own safety, as well as the fact that a live animal’s well being is involved. It’s too dangerous an activity to just wing it based on what she thinks she knows from her childhood! It’s not like she’s picking up knitting again after 20 years off....again, it involves LIVE ANIMAL. And a large and strong one, at that. What a ditz.
I was dying today when she was bragging about how strong she’s gotten in just a few days
Even more so know that it’s confirmed she has sloppy jello legs when she rides. But, I don’t know what else I was expecting - this is the woman who was claiming to run miles on the treadmill after a week at the gym...without even breaking a sweat! Lol
