I think you should ask a junior who has been there.. no one can give you a
better perspective..

>   you ask very important questions...as for your eight year old coming out
of the ring crying...well as you already know kids have fragile egos and
they are quick to blame themselves for things out of their control, and
their control of their emotion for "sadness"...well they have little control
over the emotion for sadness...as for RUDENESS....this is totally the
parents' fault......if a child is excessively rude one of two things is
true...the parents are rude and or the child is allowed to get away with
this type of behavior...kids need to "not" take showing dogs too seriously
(adults too)..kids also need to know that in life you will lose, and you
will lose often...they also need to learn that life is seldom fair...but
They should strive to always be fair!...first day off...I'm bored already
and I miss the "dirty 30 plus one"...its going to be a long 5
weeks..lol...FB
