Exactly that.

With a bunch of children just repeating long series of moves they were trained to do. Not one child is smilling. They look like marionettes that are dead inside.

This comment section makes me sad...

I work with children and the amount of boo-hooing about this little boy is absurd. You assume all adults were ignoring him, but probably not. There’s definitely an adult communicating with him off stage, and he’s staring directly at them. Most likely mom, a teacher, or a helper is off stage supporting him nonverbally.

The boy is actually my least problem tbh. His partner iritates me way more. The fact that she basicly does all the moves, quite robotic, witout any emotion in her face...

She’s like 4. Kids suck at things. It doesn’t mean they shouldn’t do them.

Once again, Im not talking about the quality of the dance, but it doesnt feel like any of those children have fun doing this. I really get the feeling that the kids really dont like to do this, and thats not a good thing.

I think they’ll survive. Consider yourself immeasurably lucky that you’ve never witnessed actual child abuse.

Come on. What youre saying is basicly: "Hitting you in the face is not bad, have you ever seen murder!?"

Im just getting the same vibes like from those little miss contests. This is not good for children and we should stop idolizing it, and call it "cute"
