Well I'm glad we all agreed. This student had a lot of other things going on i.e. no confidence in themselves etc etc. I had recently taken them on and had heard bad things about previous instructors. It definitely was a classic case of "difficult student". What irked me was that they actually called the flight school owner the next day to complain that I was dangerous and shouldn't teach. The owner simply laughed and basically said "tough **** deal with it" in a more customer friendly way.

Anyways the student met with me yesterday and told me the 101 reasons why stalls are dangerous and all the people she knows that said she wouldn't do them. I told her my reasoning which is similar to everyone's here. That was that, she didn't like it and actually left. If she comes around again, it'll be interesting to see.
