Very DISAPPOINTED with Irresponsible behaviour of the Person who minded the children. She put my child in danger reason-just to fetch tennis ball.

My son went to school holiday camp that was advertised as Sports camp.
The person in charge had asked my son to climb over a fence -THE TENNIS Fence is sbout 10 FEET high and chain linked) just to fetch the tennis ball that had fallen over other side. Of all the 20 kids she asked him and he did it. He was not the oldest or tallest of the group. There were clear dangers in asking a child to scale a fence ; thankfully
Nothing bad happened when climbing twice. He climbed and got off other side and climbed back again to come to the side she was waiting. When he was climbing from other side and if had a fall she would have not been able to hold or catch or any help as no one was there on the other side. JUST IMAGINE.
The gates to other side are usually locked; she could have waited for the council to come and give access next day or so. Such an easy and sensible way out.
I find this to be irresponsible, there is no way an adult /child minder would ask a child to do some dangerous act.
She is NOT supposed to ask a child do it. It goes against the basic safety practices and even common sense.
If she wanted those that fell over it's her or the coach job to fetch it or wait until the council to open the locked gates. Not just put a child in danger.
Feeling angry and annoyed.
