No, you didn't sound harsh at all. It's really frustrating to be in a situation like that. I can understand your trainer's thinking though, I'd sure be tempted to buy him :)

"Course we all know I'm a sucker for a horse that needs a good home and it sounds like he does.

I was really unsure about him when the kid was riding him, but I could also see that he was being ridden poorly. But when my trainer got on him and rode him correctly and he didn't give much more attitude than swishing his tail and tensing up, I knew that I could ride him, and at that point I wanted to. BUT I know that I don't have the time to really work with him. However, he does need to get out of that situation. He's not mistreated, but he's on the path to being ruined. And the thing that I noticed about that barn is that all the horses were rushing around and none of them were being ridden correctly at all.
