Doesn't anyone here watch DANCE MOMS — Page 5

I don't think I saw that one? I coached cheerleading for 9 years and most of the moms were great. I did have one that thought it was ok to come into my classroom while I was teaching and expect me to stop and talk to her about competition though. Cray cray.

This is it.

I coached a dance team for 3 years and I had the same mentality but I was also very tough. I refused to let parents in to practices, if girls forget a piece of a uniform I got a lap for each piece.

I read an interview today (I'll try to find it) that Abby told producers she felt that it was becoming more the drama and not about the girls dancing and if they didn't balance it out she'd pull the plug and she feels they balanced it out.

Judging from this week's episode, Abby's idea of "balancing it out" is giving the girls less opportunities to dance and punishing them for stuff they didn't do. Abby creates the drama because she LOVES it. She knows what side her bread is buttered on and if she doesn't act like a completely irrational self-centered psycho, then there would be no show and she'd go back to being the nobody she was. The whole Chloe thing this week is the perfect example. Same thing with Makenzie. The amount of stress she dumped on that little girl just before her solo was ridiculous. Her little breakdown with Maddie was shameful. And the choreography of that group routine was embarrassing. And it was all Abby's fault. But after blaming the girls, she then tells the girls they are being punished because of their mothers. The woman is completely off the rails.

I watched about 20 seconds the other night. Could not grab the remote fast enough.
