Doing what’s best for your child isn’t “crazy”—it’s called parenting.
Healthy programs earn trust; they don’t demand submission.
“Follow my rules” isn’t leadership when it comes from a demand for control. We’re allowed to reJecT diRecTion rooted in ego and a need for control.
Removing a child from an unhealthy, abusive dynamic isn’t drama—it’s protection. That’s what healthy parenting looks like.
And any adult who tries to manufacture tears from a child, then cRiTiques them for not performing “enough remorse,” forfeits any claim to authority over someone else’s kid.

There is so much bitterness in your "code" language. (What are you? A teenager?) Must be a former RT. It also sounds like you were kicked out, rather than a simple transfer to A. People transfer all the time. But you sound resentful, bitter, and definitely do not sound like you were ready to move on. Sucks to be you.

Continuously questioning repeated transgressions isn’t drama—it’s accountability.
We were asked to leave for questioning a system that lines pockets, herds dancers, holds dancers back to feed egos, coasts on “30 years of tradition,” and ultimately lacks the skills to make dancers better. We couldn’t be happier to have this decision stated.

No code—just judgment. If it baited you into responding, that worked.

Oh, and the irony of accusing immaturity while replying “sucks to be you” is almost impressive.

Why does the big A not allow 2nd chance for its dancers but RT does?
