This show is killing me... I was a huge fan in the beginning. Even got to meet the original girls (right when Kendall first joined) and Abby Lee (Picture / autograph) and some of the moms... (my cp was in dance before cheer or kinda at the same time and they competed against her school - 2nd place for my cp's school and 1st place to aldc but we will take it cause at the time - 4/5 yrs ago they were really young great dancers) anyway, getting back to my point.... I was a huge fan, so was my daughter... now I find myself sometimes fast forwarding not just through commercials but through some of the tantrums THE ADULTS ARE HAVING!!! to make things easier, here's my breakdown:
Nia/Holly - good for you for trying to stick up for yourself but you saw the week before that the moms are never going to go against Abby unless she does something that negatively affects their own child... They're in it for themselves and about 1/3rd for their kids...
Kendall/Jill - honestly I understand some of your own frustrations but I have to give you some credit for trying to "play the game" as best as you can... sometimes you're right, sometimes you're wrong
Kalani/Kira - I think Kalani is a fabulous dance (actually slightly better than Maddie - sorry not sorry) the idea that you both thought Abby would actually push you ahead of Maddie is mind-blowing... you really should have considered all your options... and Kira be the better person and stop instigating things with the other moms from your old school... they just want attention for ratings and that includes the producers, be the better person and kill them with kindness sweety
JoJo/Jessalyn - GO HOME!!!! I'm sorry not sorry but I can't stand you as a mom because you have been creating a brat. My kid is 11 and I don't care if a coach or teacher yell at her... she is to keep her mouth shut, and report to me and I'll handle the situation... Your child (above all the kids there) feels entitled and not for nothing she's not!!! She just got there and you are literally trying to shove her down abby's throat and its not working... do I think abby's wrong or right yes about 50/50... but geez try to read between the lines... go home... and please get your girl some speech therapy... omg I can't....
Maddie/MackZ/Melissa - Girls are adorable... I don't like Maddie's facials however I do think she is very talented... Is she god's gift to the world of dance - NO! - can she grow to be amazing - yes but seriously Melissa you're gonna be left in this world miserable and alone and many in the professional industry of whatever it is you want your kid to do are not going to enjoy your presence much less abby's ... Please stop acting as if you're surprised when one of your kids gets a solo, an audition, a role, etc... you're in it for yourself more than any of the other parents there... and your lips are so far up Abby's rear-end, I can't figure out where you begin and she ends... please STOP... do u even watch yourself on TV... I'd be beyond embarrassed... (Note: sometimes yes do I think the moms bug you with 1000 questions, for sure, but you asked for it yourself)
The new moms that came on last night - I will not use vulgar language but please try to reach deep into my cerebral cortex and listen to the words my brain cells are spitting at you... you're annoying, butt kissing, wannabe famous, sad excuses for parents.. if you're invited to come to fill in for someone, take that as an experience and don't ruin it by feeling entitled or even special or even attempting to carry a conversation with the other moms, a simple hello will do and maybe a nice gesture like "I'm so happy Abby called and when we go home my daughter will have a tremendous experience under her belt"...its called being humble. A famous spider wrote it on a pig's barn in a book, read it...
Abby - oh dear, there are no words that can describe how disappointing your career has become. It started with a great idea for a show and is slowly coming to an end, I hope. This season is by far the worst. You brought that on yourself by using children to further your career. I wanna see other students from your school not just the 11 year olds. how good are you really? Although I would miss the show just a tad, I really hope this is it because I don't think I can watch another season of you making a fool of yourself or trying to belittle or embarrass those girls who are working so hard to please you instead of making themselves happy....
That is all....
