I think the extent of assault she is talking about is news.

In order to compete at these Olympics nobody can have any kind of support/safety

False. Twisties are the worse thing that could ever happen.

This isn't COVID related. She's not talking about the Tokyo Olympics

fattycoug

And about how they wouldn't let her parents go with her because of covid

I must have missed it…what is driving her response?

From what I could tell people having been asking her questions and she's been

Wondering the same. What is she reacting or responding to exactly? I believe she

Seems like responding to the USA Twitter account saying superficial things

She has every right to be furious, the amount of unsupervised access that Nassar

Parents aren’t allowed this year either 🤦‍♂️

That’s ridiculous, after all of that the orgs should put those girls’ safety hi

It’s not really different from a 16 year old professional soccer player

This is true. My 12 year old was invited to west region ODP camp this year

southbaycoug

probably didn’t want the parents to see they were being charged 400% per room

That is true.

Even our club requires player-only rooms for our 11/12 year olds for routine

cougfanz

8/1/21 5:17pm

No way I would turn my 11-12 yr old over to someone else to watch over. No way

Some of those ODP rules are ridiculous. Ours requires a 20 hour bus ride

cougfanz

8/1/21 5:21pm

This is crazy to me. As scout master I wanted as many parents possible around

DiamondMo

8/1/21 5:35pm

I struggle with that. How does anyone think that kind of situation is okay? A minor child forbidden contact with

You think Nassar wanted parents around. He had coaches and gymnastics administrators creating the perfect environment

Spiff

I do? You're putting words in my mouth that aren't there.

John Doe

8/1/21 5:15pm

Sorry, meant to have a question mark after that first sentence.

Spiff

8/1/21 5:18pm

Crazy thing is he committed some of those attrocities with parents in the room

I listened to a podcast about this, honestly, it was horrendously bad. Basically raped dozens of gymnasts over years.

USA Gymnastics should have been completely disbanded and remade with no one with any previous connection to the program

Spiff

8/1/21 9:23pm

Really should have. I don't know how their lawyers are letting them operate the same way. Liability wise, it is

People should have been arrested for allowing it to happen for so long
