Dancing sure has changed...

That was disgusting. It was much worse than I was expecting it to be. Those adults are idiots and they ought to be locked up for child abuse.

Is this even in the US?

I've been to a few of the boys (almost 15 & 19) dances, and this isn't the norm - at all.

This style isn't even ''in", anymore.

Kids pop and lock, now.

I've got to second the OP that said "child abuse." Absolutely disturbing & disgusting for an adult to demonstate this for children, then with a child, then to cheer them on. If I knew these people I'd have called CPS already. Those were clothed sex acts plain & simple (in my eyes - maybe not in everyone's) - that was NOT dancing if you ask me.

God I can almost see why The Duggars forbid dancing!

Watched Footloose last night. Remember how taboo plain old regular dancing was in that movie? And they didn't even touch each other - they just wanted to move around & dance & have good, clean fun. What has the world turned into anymore?

It really didn't seem like it was in the U.S. did it? I do realize that the boundaries are different in other cultures but I think this even crossed THOSE boundaries. I just don't understand why anyone would ever encourage this.

In a few years we can all listen to these "parents" say things like "I have no idea why my 12 year old is pregnant..."

oh my, oh my --- very sad, those 'adults' should be facing criminal charges. Those children were have 'sex' w/ clothes on.
Freud always said children are sexual beings, I don't think they knew what they were doing was not age appropriate (or public appropriate for that matter!), but looking at the eyes of the boys (the ones that looked 9 or 10) they didn't dislike the way it felt. I personally don't think the girls felt the same (aside from the one with the really little guy ), one of the little girls was grabbed by two boys.......
These will be the boys that rape and abuse women later in life, thanks to these 'adults' not teaching them they proper way to treat females.
I would love a translator to determine what the 'adults' were saying in the background (on the other hand---maybe I wouldn't............)

.....the grown woman was trying to get a little boy (maybe 5 years old he was not very big???) to do the dance with her.

To me that looked an awful lot like child abuse. An adult, who knew full well what the dance was simulating, trying to get a small child to do that with/to her.

Sick. absolutely sick

She is a pig, an animal at best. A piece of trash.

I agree. I will go as far as saying the adults involved in this are a waste of a life.

That video was really disgusting.

 

[dancin'girl]

I ditto this. very disturbing, I wish I had not even clicked on it.

I agree. That was awful. So sad.

I wish it surprised me. When I was in college (6 years ago) I worked for a summer at a day camp as a counselor. The kids there were more knowledgeable than me!! The parents thought it was so cute that their kids could dance dirty and knew all the words to the unedited versions of disgusting songs. Another counselor actually caught a 9 year old girl performing a certain act on a 10 year old boy behind a piece of playground equipment. The father of the boy was proud when told and was furious that he was being kicked out of the camp for being a "playa". It was a very disturbing summer. No matter what we taught those children during the day, it was all undone the moment they went home.

You can't always blame the parents. Well in this case you can, but not always. My 7 yr old DD dances like a stripper. Loves to shake her butt, shimmy her hips, enen drop it to the ground. She doesn't watch BET or no rap videos and she's never seen it from me or her dad. Add to that she hates wearing clothes and I see a profitable future ahead of her. At least she can pay her way through college.[/QUOTE]

I'm having a hard time trying to decide if this post is real, or a joke?? If it's a joke, then, I get it and it's kinda funny. But, if not...

I disagree, you can blame the parents. If I had a daughter, or if I saw my 7 yr. old niece doing that, I would nip it in the bud and explain to her that that behavior is not appropriate. That she has to respect her own body if she expects others to do the same. You have to teach kids the difference b/t right and wrong.

This is coming from someone who had lenient parents and who DID this kind of thing growing up and deeply regrets it b/c it did change the way people viewed/respected/treated me. And that, in turn, affected the way I felt about myself and behaved. It didn't turn out well... thank GOD I made it through those years and grew up!!

I will never understand how people can be so careless when it comes to the character of their children....[/QUOTE]

Well, we try explaining that it's not appropriate but she doesn't really understand why it's not. She thinks it's "fun" because she's dancing, moving, getting into the music. It is partially a joke and partially not. She really does dance this way, at home but not in public. She doesn't see it as disrespectful, or sexy or wrong becasue she has no frame of reference, KWIM? She doesn't really know what sex is, how you do it, or rather the motions that it involves which are so clearly demonstrated in the video. So for now, we let it slide, she doesn't get it but as she gets older, learns a little more about sex and what's appropriate and inappropriate, we'll put a stop to it.

I still have to say that in many situations you can't blame the parents. Even the most well reared children can behave in ways they know they shouldn't. Clearly not this one because they should all be hog tied, covered in honey and made to dance over an anthill.

I feel nauseous after watching that. And then at the end they seemed to be voting for who was the "best" dancer? Disgusting.
