I've just watched an article on Sky News about child acrobats in China. They are highly skilled but I can't help but feel sorry for them as their living conditions seemed Dickensian. I hope the children in Epcot are treated better - but I suspect that this is where they learnt their skills.

this is exactly where they earn their skills, but to be honest the western world with its pushy soccer/tennis/golf/beauty pageant parents aren't much better, at least the Epcot kids probably earn a decent wage and are exceptionally well appreciated for it.
I think sometimes its best not to know too much behind these things and try and enjoy them for what they are, really good entertainment.
