  1. Chloe and Maddie I think had the most preasure until Chloe left the team. But Abby gave Maddie and Chloe a lot of anxiety. I am so happy that they don't have the pressure of wining every single weekend and that they have a great life. I hope that they never forget that this is not about wining its about being yourself and you don't have to do it if you don't want to. I hope that thay remember that!😇

  2. So, Maddie cries when she doesn't get a solo.
    But none of the other girls cry. AND .. If they did Abby would flip out on them. Melissa saying Maddie is special WELL MELISSA ALL THE GIRLS ARE.. MADDIE SHOULD BE HUMBLED.

  3. I need to say something so Jill and her kid Kendall they have stayed longer than all of these other dance kids dance moms so good choice that you let them stay there because they stayed with you all the way

  4. 15:40 christi: “maybe we ought to ask if the have one in her(abbys) size”
    Kelly: “oh they dont make one that size” 💀😭

  5. Other than being a good mom and keeping her in school, Christy can't get her an early dismissal because the hours Chloe misses is counted against her and if they add up they'd have to go to court. The only way to get around that would be to let the school know Chloe is essentially working a full time job and they'd have to enforce state mandated labor laws for her and assumed for the other girls if it ever went to court since they'd almost definitely be included.

  6. It was crazy watching Abby go from caring about Chloe’s future and potential to tearing her down without any real constructive criticism, just insults. I know she hated Christi but it saddens me she tore a child down as punishment. Especially a child with a natural gift and love for dancing.

  7. It is CRYSTAL CLEAR, as it has been actually all these years but when you see these condensed Compilations, we all see that Abby is truly Mentally Imbalanced. The Emotional Immaturity is one thing but there are those Extreme Moments that really make one concerned the Impact those Moments will have on her Students as they mature in the years to come. But one cannot blame Abby entirely when some of these Girls, not all, have Mothers like Jill whose Primary Motive is NOT their Child, but themselves. As the years have gone by, you can see those Girls who've had healthier nurturing & influence from their Mothers. Those like Holly & Christy who truly have had their Children's well being to be first & foremost above Dance.  
    Jill, an actual "Dance Mom", is a typical Narcissist living vicariously through her Daughters Dance "career" therefore, she would continue to push her Daughter into unhealthy circumstances no matter the cost of well being to her Child. There was always an obvious "desperate" undertone to all of Jill's machinations. She also overlooked & ignored the reality about Kendall's abilities. K was a Mediocre Dancer, at best, and remained mediocre over the years to come. Her placement had nothing to do with her Talent but the dynamics of Timing coming on a Reality TV Show. Jill continued to maintain an unrealistic perspective about her Childs Talent & level of Ability. Seeing Kendall as Competition next to a Gifted Dancer like Maddie is not only unrealistic, it was for Jill, a Complete Distortion of Reality.

  8. i both cringe and cackle when christi calls Abby out for ‘telling Paige to do a standing back tuck’ and the prods did n o t hesitate to add the clip 💀💀,, mam was sure of herself but tbh i don’t blame her 😅😂

  9. I love Maddie Ziegler! even though she was abby's favoraite she is trying to unlearn these things when she was younger being a perfectionist. Im glad her and mackenzie don't want anything to do with abby or the other girls because they deserve happieness.

  10. I loved Chloe on this show she was very sweet and talented but I think her Mom made her feel like a victim a lot of times. I don’t think she meant to do it but she was always telling her that she was. Abby did put a lot of praise on Maddy and she did deserve it in a lot of ways she too was a very talented little girl. All these kids were very very talented . The Moms were all nutty as fruit cakes

  11. At 1:23:49 when holly is talking to Abby about nia braids she said under my dance dance company it says do not change your hair color, so there’s really nothing wrong with nia’s braids

  12. I need to know if all of Melissa’s lies were real or if they just edited it to make her look absolutely awful. When she said it wasn’t fair to pull Nia out of rehearsal for a call and then was like “you guys are lying about me!” As soon as someone mentioned it to holly is actually so insane and delusional. I really hope it was just edited to make her look bad.

  13. When the moms are being mad, when Maddie gets a part is very sad because like the girls shouldn’t be used to it of Maddie getting all these special parts. It’s not fair because she gets all the church of favor and Abby favors her a lot and it’s not fair to the other girls I don’t know why Melissa Tries to stick up for Maddie when she gets a a special part. I just feel like Abby just wants Maddie to get everything and she never treat a girl the same way it’s like favoritism Maddie gets all the favorite in the rest of the girls don’t it’s very sad because Mema forgot her dance. Abby didn’t cry ChloeđŸ’žđŸ«¶đŸœ forgot her dance Abby didn’t cry page regarding aunt Abby didn’t cry in Niya forgot her dance and Abby didn’t cry but when Maddie forgets her dance, it’s a nervous break down I just feel bad for the rest of the girls how they gotta get favoritism like that and it’s not fair I know I like Maddie and all but I just hate the favoritism and I hate when Maddie and ChloeđŸ’žđŸ«¶đŸœ have to compete against each other even though they’re very good friends it’s just sad how many gets all the favoritism everybody thinks Maddys the good is person in the greatest dancer ever it’s not fair Maddie wants everything to be perfect and wants to get everything. That’s why I kind a like ChloeđŸ’žđŸ«¶đŸœ better because I just don’t know she’s better yeah

  14. everyone is talking about how this was such a toxic environment for maddie(which i agree it was) but it got her to where she is today and also if you think it was bad for maddie well she was the favorite it was 10 times worst for the other kids

  15. It gets on my nerves that it’s ok when Cathy goes into Abby’s dressing room but when Abby goes in hers it’s the end of the world and not ok

  16. Chloe in her Queen of Hearts dance was fantastic! Still my absolute favorite of hers, she really embodied that character SO well

  17. Oma melissa is so annoying, somebody disliking something does NOT equal hate! She says if ppl dont like the video its haters! Learn to take a critique!
