I have three. Didn't see it all that serious. Just a father telling his daughter that she exceeded his expectations. Nothing too deep.
I can see that...but that was a difficult and potentially dangerous routine...why teach it to her if he had doubts about her executing it properly?
When college cheerleaders do that shit they have at least one other spotter there to make sure they get caught if things go wrong...it was just him and she's spinning and flipping high in the air. So the potential for an ER visit was very real. The margin for error was pretty slim so his expectation can only be failure is not an option with this.
remember his statement was
"You had me scared, cuz I didn't think you were gonna do it right"
My point is kids are thinking individuals who can internalize or read into things just like adults can. And sometimes they can take things the wrong way or not how you intended it...so one should be careful to say or do something that makes them question if YOU have confidence in their ability to do anything.
