not naming any names but a facebook group has called me an awful rider and that my pony completly need retraining and is dangerous from watching this video-

sorry i am completly besides myself that adults can say this? i know it sounds silly but it has really crushed my confidence to where i want to be, surely they should be supportive ect?! sorry rant over, digestive tea and biscuits for those who have taken there time!,
 
First off, don't put videos and pics up if you can't stomach people commenting!

However you can look at that video yourself and see there's no reason in the world for anyone to call you an awful rider or to deduce that your pony's dangerous so why worry about what people who are evidently complete idiots think? Just ignore them and preferably block them.

As for "surely they should be supportive" - not sure why unless they are friends, family or instructors. tbh to anyone else it's a video of someone else riding a white pony!

Don't take it to heart, remember the mantra adopted by Baydale - "People who matter don't mind, people who mind don't matter".

Just one thing, because I don't know how this came about. If you posted it and asked for praise then some people will react by trying to knock you down. "Adults" are only a very few years older than you are now and have been known to behave childishly for the rest of their lives!
 
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=t8j7ERKrdZ0 here is another one for safe keeping i simply asked wether all horses can be barefoot and then they asked me wether my pony is and i said no, without shoes on my pony is more likely going to slip around a XC (he has slipped on me before without shoes) as he is a typical jumping pony that only i can ride here is a video of my friend jumping him- http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vDD49mhCgsI as you can tell he is completely different with a new rider as they simply can get the grasp of him, they ask me to post a video of me riding him so i did, to show them how he is a difficult ride where they begin telling me that he is unhappy.. ive ruined his feet because i have a full set of shoes on, q
where i clearly stated that i hunt and his hoof growth was just not quick enough for the amount of work he does! sorry for the ramble just had to let it out!
