[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 565854, member: 1233"] Wow/ I knew it was popular but I can't watch it. i get so angry with that hag Abby because she is so mean to the kids. I cannot stand that parents allow their kids to be treated this way. There is ZERO chance one of my kids would be in that competition because I would never tolerate the way the adults act. Sure, the kids are incredible. But don't we know that they are KIDS? There are troupes that are this level who are not abused by the adults. I know because I have a cousin who is 19 who is am amazing ballerina and she has NEVER been treated this way because she would not tolerate it, not even at age five. She left one dance studio because the owner was so demeaning and awful. She was eight and found another school and told her mom she was changing schools. Didn't ask, just said it was happening, and she was so determined and so angry over the abusive treatment that my aunt said okay. This young woman is not only studying dance in college, she has danced for many years with a professional ballet company at several performances each year. She did this the first tiem when she was seven or eight. I hate that there are now many many young girls who think that a dance teacher is SUPPOSED to behave like Abby. After all, tv is reality for many kids and if Abby is on tv then she must be great. I wonder what is in the parents' heads to allow ANYONE to abuse their children like that??? [/QUOTE]
