Dance Moms

Never have I watched anyone on TV and just , dislike is not a strong enough word. This fat slug of a woman, who makes such a point of showing her love for her favorites, is just so disgusting. She abuses the children, verbally, emotionally and mentally. Should NOT be allowed on TV. WHY does she put children down so much. Any time that Maddie and Chloe did a duet it placed first. But she still has to humiliate Chloe HER own dancer, by putting her further down each week. Now she has Maddie turning against the other children as well. I am glad Kelly is gone, I wish she could have really hit that mean horrible woman. And I am very overweight, but I am a nice person. Abby has a beautiful face, but she is so ugly inside and gets more so all the time. HATE THIS WOMAN. STOP WATCHING this show!!!!

I would like to see Abby stop yelling and berating the girls and hating on the moms. I think I dislike the moms fighting as much as I dislike Abby's screaming. I don't remember the show being like this in the first season. Unless this is all really fake and just for the show, I can't see the moms putting up with their kids being treated like this. I don't get where this show is headed. I love to watch the girls dance, otherwise I would quit watching. I would also like to see the full dance instead of the camera showing the moms and whatever during the dance. Even a split screen would be OK, but I would like to see the entire dance.

I know I'm wayyy late but I was looking for something to binge watch and I guess I just can't leave my opinion on this monstrosity unsaid. The only reason I would even think to give this a 4/10 is solely for the girls and their dancing. They all deserve so much better. Better than this monster who labeled herself a dance teacher. Better than the mothers who allow this overgrown bully to attack their little girls and abuse them relentlessly. I can only imagine the trauma that was inflicted on these children during this experience. If any of them are now emotionally and mentally healthy adults then they deserve a crown simply for that. I understand that cancel culture wasn't a thing when this show started but I really can't fathom why Abby was allowed to continue terrorizing these girls for so many years without being held accountable. She is clearly someone who never realized her own dreams and goals in life so she makes herself feel validated by picking apart these little girls who don't know any better. Classic bully. It's disgusting. That being said, those girls are beautiful dancers and I enjoy seeing them go out there and perform beautifully. Abby and the moms do not deserve these sweet kids 😞.

OK, I admit it, I spent a rainy day watching this show. I kept watching hoping I would see something positive, but alas, I saw abusive behavior aimed at children, with their parents approval and of course tacit public approval based on the fact that the show has been renewed for more than one season.

I find it especially sad that a TV channel like Lifetime, that claims to be "Television for Women" would produce a show that shows continual verbal, emotional and possibly physical abuse of young girls.

The fact that no one from any sort of Child Protect services has never investigated this woman amazes me.

The moms are worse, as they allow it to happen. Not only to they allow it, but they run back begging for more. And they have the most inappropriate conversations in front of those kids.

If anyone has children or has an interest in advocating for children they should avoid this show.

Abby has pushed some of these girls emotions to the brink of breaking. Like with Chloe. How could someone even call a child WASHED UP and constantly berate the girl for things? She's always compared to Maddie and when Chloe beat Kendall i believe? instead of being happy for Chloe, Abby throws a hissy fit and called the girl washed up and even told Christi that her daughter SUCKED!! how DARE she? how could a human being do that!? instead of praising Chloe and being happy for her, she has to go and do that. i don't blame that girl one bit for having enough.I congratulate Christi for pulling Chloe out. enoughs enough with the verbal and emotional abuse because frankly thats what it appears to be from my perspective.

I would never subject my child to someone that teaches like that. each girl is amazing and talented. Abby just fails to point that out instead points out the more negative things and compares them to someone else entirely. but what Maddie doesn't realize is there is always someone better than she is out there. its just how the universe works. maybe Abby should try using some positive praise and not make these girls feel like crap.
