I'm an idiot.

Right. So after accepting the new job at the drug store, I went in for my training today. It went really good, I'm looking forward to it!

Now to the idiot part: I'm going to a figure skating meeting tonight. I am going to tell them I'm willing to coach a couple hours a week. They have not been able to find anyone else, and if I don't go back, there will be no skating here because you MUST have a Skate Canada professional coach or you cannot have a club.

I was ok with this for awhile, I was thinking that the parents will have to deal with the kids being upset because it really is THEM (the parents) that caused this in the first place by meddling and being difficult. However, as time has gone on, I just feel so torn about the whole thing. It's hard to have this kind of control over an entire group of kids, who's hearts I broke just a few weeks ago. I mean, the parents caused the problems, but it's the 70 or so kids in our community that will suffer. And I'm to the point where I have thought this over SO much, I just don't know that I can live with myself.

I know there has to come a time where it's just not my problem, but until Amelia stops skating, it is my problem. I had to decide if I a) wanted to take Amelia out of town for skating 1-2 times a week or b) go back to skating here.

Sigh. I am so torn. I asked them for a meeting, I didn't say why yet. I want to hear them out on what new rules they are proposing to keep things under control.

Am I a complete moron or what? Am I just opening myself up to further abuse?
