Let them get the right instructor.
I guess you had a good supply of glue huh? hehehehehehehe.
I think your just joking but theres nothing like coming back home with an uncrashed plane 
Actually, no joke at all. But that was 15 years ago and I'm WAY more mature now! (Don't tell my wife that though, she thinks building PBF's while I have thousands of dollars worth of planes is VERY immature!)
I don't really remember how I happened onto this thread or why I decided to put my $0.02
but I thought the cynical attitude would show though without explanation, was I wrong? I wasted tons of money I didn't have then, didn't even know there were buddy cords, and the other fliers in Marin Couty, CA treated me with distain when I visited the local club.
Of course, get an instructor, or spend your money on RC cars and Boats, NO JOKE! The thought of crashing shouldn't bother you as much as the HUGE danger you would pose, and remember, the AMA wouldn't cover you since you would be violating one of the saftey codes. There, serious enough?
