Well, for all those that saw my post from last night, i'll tell you how my day went up at the yard!

I lead round a small child who was on a 15.2 and her legs didnt go past the saddle!!! I got told of for having a drink and went on a horse I dont like riding, and they know I dont because I'v said, I got put behind one of the laziest school horses and was told of for kicking my horse into trot before they lead rein infront had, I got told of for asking the girl leading the horse infront, to stop pushing my horse away when my horse was doing nothing wrong, I was the only person ALL DAY that mucked out and I got told of for sitting down. We didnt canter and when I asked I got told to go back to my jobs, which I had finished, the rest of the girls did what they pleased while I swept. All in all I still payed 25squid for riding in a beginners lesson, which I wasnt ment to!!! But it dosent matter because next time my dad said, im paying 19squid because we're spending 75£ a month so I can trot around and muck out!!!

Your Views?

Refuse to go, your Mum can't drag you kicking and screaming. Sit down and calmly explain to her how you feel, don't shout or holler that won't help. Calmly discuss it and tell her your not willing to go back
 
Sorry, but if its that crap and you are that unhappy, then stay away.

I still think that if your attitude is similar to how it comes over on here, that they are doing it all on purpose.

Maybe its a clash of personalities, and they dislike you as much as you obviously dislike them!!!
 
Agree with MQ perhaps they find you as confrontational as you sound.
Making your pony trot up the backside of the one in front in a group lesson is not acceptable. Whilst 15 in a lesson is quite ridiculous that does not excuse bad manners or dangerous behavour. TBH you come across as rather arogant and unprepared to listen to anyone including people on here.
Either "put up or shut up". Be careful what you say about establishments on here you could get into trouble.
You have been given some very good advice. Take it

To me, it sounds like they don't like you very much

Have seen this type of thing myself, where one of the helpers gets taken the pee out of and does most of the work, still has to pay for rides, and when they don't like a particular horse, will always get put on it. (quite wrong but it does happen)

I would leave, look around for something else, ask local horse owners if they need a bit of help that kind of thing.

Failing that and you are not willing to leave, then you have two choices.... tell them outright how unfair it is, or put up with it

I have kept quiet until now but

I think that you are either a gluten for punishment or been a bit of a drama queen,if it was that bad you would not go.
If your as ra ra as this in RL then im not suprised the girls at the yard wind you up.
As for your progress riding as someone who has taught i can assure you anyone who would have ''kicked'' a horse in my lesson would not have been moving up a stage.
I think you maybe think your a little more advanced than you actually are.

If it is so unbarable for you to the point your locking yourself in the toilets then dont go.
