is reality is the reality type show Dance Moms
child abuse if you haven't heard of Dance Moms I cut a few minutes over the
other day and then started research Dance Moms is a
reality type show I call them not because usually much of it is staged it
on Lifetime it set in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
and it follows the Abby Lee Dance Company and children's very early
careers in the dance show business as well as their mothers
the girls are usually eight to 15 years old I'm not going to play clips because
my understanding is
their very harsh about copyright and even though I believe
we would be within our fair use rights to play their clips Lewis as we are
issuing a critique not using their clips
simply too copy their material I just don't have the copyright fight with them
so check it out google it on your own
they yell at the kids the kids are are treated like they are
you know adult reality show contestants their yelled at the mother is yell at
them the teachers yell at them
I don't really understand how somebody could watch this and under the
assumption that it's not staged Louis
this is abuse I mean eight-year-olds being treated in this manner
rate and the even if its
the even if it is stage David I have a hard time
wrapping my brain around the idea of an 8-year-old consenting to be part of this
whole show in
everything that goes along with that I don't think they'd really understand
right happening did not not only that Lewis there is a difference between
being strict and being abusive
right right so I think either way this has got to be
a formal abuse or neglect the other thing is have we
have-we reached such bottom of the barrel
on the reality show industry
that we're now watching children being abused and yelled that that's considered
entertainment now
yeah I guess so I i certainly are not entertained by it I don't watch any of
these
crappy reality shows I I despise most to them
I am you've actually told me you prefer to punch yourself in the face then watch
a lot of these shows
I do david i I find it much more productive you would you would rather
plucky your
your goatee of inherit a time then watch Dance Moms is that fair
absolutely yeah
