Coach bullying

[iamfedup]

Please, use punctuation and sentences. This is NOT a cell phone.

Is this coach affiliated with a school? Then your first complaint should be to the school or the school district.
If the coach is taking pictures of girls (to the point of gential exposure) and taking pictures, call the police.

There is no need to be nasty. Yes The coach is also a English teacher.

The bullying was involving my daughter only prior to this at school. My daughter was in car accident and was injured and could not cheer this was few weeks prior to competition coach approached her everyday and questioned her about attendance while having her in English class and once she did return calling her out continuously she would come home crying every evening

That is certainly a different issue than what you were asking about in your original post.

I still am not seeing any bullying, though.

You can speak to the coach and also discuss the matter with the principal of the school.

I'm not being nasty. Your original post was near unintelligible. I guessed your meaning, so my answer still stands. There's no law against coaches being "bullies" as long as it doesn't rise to the level of assault or illegal discrimination. If the photography of the changing involves what could be considered child porn, then you need to contact the police. Otherwise, you're just going to have to lodge your concerns with whatever due process the school and district provides. If that doesn't resolve things to your satisfaction, you're going to need an education lawyer. The steps to follow after that rely on a lot of details that you haven't provided (and likely aren't going to be able to provide) here.

Which has nothing to do with dressing for the competition. What did you do in response to the above issue?

It is not nasty to ask that you make it easier for the *volunteers* here to help you by explaining the situation clearly.

Your daughter apparently has a dislike of the teacher/coach. I think you are probably best off addressing this with the teacher/coach directly. Perhaps an in-person meeting with the teacher/coach can help you understand better what the underlying issue really is.

I'm of two minds here, tbh. It sounds (to me) as if the coach was trying to figure out if the daughter was going to be able to compete, or if she needed to switch up the squad. I'm also wondering if the attendance issue was one where daughter could not participate but still attended practice, or if she didn't attend because she couldn't practice.

If it were *my*daughter, I'd urge her to speak to the coach one-on-one before I started in with a meeting (fastest way to *really*make the coach dislike the kid).

Your suggestion is the better one.

But either would be preferable first steps to take before complaining to the principal.

I would, perhaps, have been inclined to address the dressing issue with the coach, but the other I'd have left to my daughter, barring anything egregious (i.e. physical assault, etc.).

p.s. Even when injured, a member of a team should attend practice. Shows commitment.

She did attend very practice but 2 after her accident and yes I did address the coach fist I went up the chain of command. My daughter has cheered for this coach for 4 years.

Are u not reading all my post I did go to coach first

 

[quincy]

Then you can skip that step and speak to the principal.

Your posts are rather difficult to read, unfortunately. Are you posting from a phone?

Perhaps your daughter should reconsider cheering if it causes this much distress.

1. Leaving the problem for others to deal with is the socially irresponsible move. The child porn should be reported until the reporting reaches someone who takes action. If the school is going to go XXX on surveillance and install cams all over the place they need to take responsibility for the consequences. It's a bit baffling that anyone finds it okay for a coach to force minors to undress in front of a camera.

2. Giving up reinforces the coach's wrongdoing. Perhaps the coach is unfit for the job and should consider a different career.
