Please can someone answer theses questions and concerns?
As some may know, I have a 6 year old Mare Belle. I have been having some problems a while back with an annoying 9 year old and she is still causing me problems and made Belle lame for a bit. So, her rich dad after 6 months of riding brought her 6 young, barely broke, green horses. The oldest horse is 7. They are really going down hill and it is getting out of hand. Not only are they too green for her, because of her they have developed many vices and one even injured Belle and broke her stall door. She turns up when ever she wants to ride, makes someone else catch, groom and tack up the horse then rides one horse for about two hours. She kicks them so much and when they buck or rear, she kicks them even more. I am concerned about all of the horses. When I first asked her what there names where she did not even know! Also, Cupcake, her STALLION, keeps trying to mount my horse Belle! I have told the barn owner and she said: 'Well, I would not advise her to have these horses but her dad pays the livery bills so it is fine'. I can't move yards and I don't know what to do!
Anyway, since the barn has to exercise them, yesterday I had to ride one of her mares. The mare is called Twinkle and is a 16.2hh warm blood. She was not a good ride at all but she seemed as if she tried to do what I asked. The cues from the little girl where always ridiculous! The girl has always said to us that we must exercise her horses only at walk and trot mounted or walk, trot, canter on the 'long dig lead thing you people use'. Just so you know this is a run down of her horses:
-Cupcake, STALLION, 15.1hh, Arab, 5yo.
-Twinkle, Mare, 16.2hh, warm blood, 6yo.
-Sparkle, Mare, 15.3hh, ISH, 7yo.
Fantasy, STALLION, 17.1hh, Urm, I dont know his breed, 4/5yo.
Glitter, Mare, 15.2hh thoroughbred, 6yo.
Peppa, STALLION, 16.3hh, Barb, 5yo.
I really think they are being wasted with her and I just think someone else should own them!
So can I do anything about her? I have also rode Glitter before. She is an excellent mount that I wish could have a better rider to further her education. Thank you for ready this lengthy paragraph/essay! ;)
Pooty: I can't move, the nearest barn after this one is a 3 hours each way and my horse is not got at travelling

She certainly shouldn't be riding any stallion, and I'd contact her dad and tell him your concerns. Add that young horses can be unpredictable and dangerous, and maybe he'll see sense and sell them. The BO is also being completely irresponsible about this, but unfortunately there's not a lot you can do. Is she getting riding lessons? If she isn't, offer to give free/cheap lessons and instruct her on using aids quietly and correctly.
As for the stallion mounting your horse, this could very seriously hurt her (or impregnate her!) and I would definitely recommend either figuring how to keep them apart or moving. It's a sucky situation, but there's not a lot else you can do. :/

2 things I see here:
1. you don't know how to mind your own business (what the other people at the barn do with their horses, ride wrong, whatever is not your business)
if anyone was abusing a horse,...like whipping them bloody or being obviously cruel (a girl kicking a horse is stupid and annoying, but not cruel unless she leaves em bloody sided)..... then I say, get involved.
otherwise, mind your own business.
2. if MY horse was getting injured or otherwise in a dangerous way, I WOULD MOVE.
You can't sit there and tell me that this is the only barn in the universe that you can go to.
That tells me that maybe you're a drama queen and you like drama, instead of peace for you and your horse.
A normal person with a normal brain capacity would have moved already.
But if you don't care that your horse is being injured and just want to complain....well.... I feel sorry for your horse.

I'd have nothing to do with her or her horses. At the end of the day, you might not agree with what she's doing but it has nothing to do with you. Whether her dad decides to splash money on her or not, whether it goes down hill or not it doesn't affect you.
Focus on your own horse, arrange it with the barn owner to keep your mare away from her horses. If this girl has stallions I don't really understand why you'd even let them get near, let alone allow it to get to the point where they can breed. And the livery owner should have arranged it so the stallions are in no near contact with the rest of her clients' animals.
Keep away, focus on your own horse and leave the others alone. It's not worth it, they're going nowhere.

Maybe talk to the dad? It doesn't sound like she truelly cares about her horses. I don't think there really is anything to do that you could change her. She def. doesn't need that meany horses. Maybe see/find someone who mite be interested in buying a horse and talk to the owner about. But be careful with how you do it. That's all I can say:) good luck.
