Unfortunately, the Parellis have made that situation worse by making women believe they can fix anything "wrong" with a horse.

They make a LOT of money spreading that myth.

Someone needs to tell all those 30/300's (thirty years old & 300lb) that if they want to try to "fix" something, they need to go get themselves help first.

I don't know how my wife keeps her sanity dealing with them.

The advice that Rex gave is sound, and if I can add one other thing to his list, make sure that the horse understands that YOU are the lead horse, and life is much better if they understand that. No cruelty involved, just be the "boss".
