I can't speak on everything, but I can speak on the titles. Some of the more prestigious titles (DEA, Jr. Miss of whatever chapter) require you to be with the dance teacher/studio,you won with, for the year of your reign. Other ones, (starbound, starpower-I believe Maddie won these during the shows), do not require you to stay with the studio/teacher for the year..You represent them at regionals and nationals. Chloe &Brook, have both won multiple prestigious titles, in fact, while Maddie has won more titles than Chloe, she has won far less important titles. It's kinda like a team going to poduck Nationals and winning 1st and bragging about it to a team that went to NCA Nationals and won 2nd...We all know which one gets you brownie points and which one makes us roll our eyes....Now while Chloe has these titles, in all of her titles, she has now crowned her successor and could leave without her titles being taking...Last season, she couldn't ,but she could leave now, without any issues...The only thing is that she wouldn't be on Dance Moms.
