Disgusted


I am quite disgusted how some of you guys talk on here. The way you shame these girls, criticize them, and put them down. Reading the entire thread about Vivi being in the group dance was the catalyst for their failure because she is "fat and ugly" Is just awful. What gives you the right to post those comments? You can therefore you should? No. Think before you type, regardless of who sees this or not. Train yourself to think before you speak. What you say here about a TV show directly reflects the thoughts you have not only about other people but about yourself. If you find it okay to belittle Vivi- an eleven year old child- here, who's to say you can't out in the world or on twitter or instagram or any other platform. Not all comments need to be made. This world should not be belittling each other to bring ourselves up. You have no idea how your words can hurt other people directly or indirectly. You have no idea who is on this board and who is reading your comments. And many people on here are just here to criticize anyone they can because it get's their sad jollies off, but that doesn't mean it is right to do so. Think before you post. Especially on topics such as body image and looks. Some comments are fine to be kept to yourself. And the fact that you are adults who honestly should know better only makes matters worse. Stooping so low as to call a child fat, fatter, a baby cow, that she needs to stop eating sundaes and cheesecakes. Who are you to criticize? Some middle aged man behind a keyboard probably too scared to post their face online for everyone to see? That's pretty sad. You have zero room to talk and criticize.

By all means, go on ahead and criticize the music, or the choreography or the insane bickering but draw the line at personally attacking these people. You have no right to personally attack them or anyone. Think before you comment, calling someone fat or a baby cow is doing nothing useful to the conversation except shaming and belittling someone else. Have respect. For yourself, for others on this board and for the cast of this show. Regardless of how fake, how ridiculous and how stupid this show is and can be, these are still human beings who deserve respect. Learn when to draw the line. Bullying is a useless waste of time and if it makes you feel better to call a child a baby cow, then you need to rethink your own personal self-esteem issues because anyone who is confident in themselves would find it beyond offensive to call children or anyone names like that. Absolutely ridiculous and uncalled for.

Now carry on, have a nice day and a nice 2017. Let's start the year off right.

Agreed.

It's lame to criticize a child's appearance, but at the same time they do put themselves out there to be seen and judged. Every moron with an internet connection can spit out his thoughts. These kids should know and be prepared for this kind of stuff. Even kids who don't appear on TV get a hard time through social media where bullying is pretty common. It's wrong but it exists, sadly enough.

As for Vivi. I didn't read the comments you mentioned, but that kid really has zero presence. It's hurting to see that poor thing on stage. Performing a routine only to please her mother, my goodness... let her do what she wants! Hateful to see her being pushed into a dance routine by Cathy.

As for her looks. Mmmz, during some of the quick edits, I seen some plus size dancers as well. Not like a chubby girl doesn't get to get on stage.
Does it look as gracious and elegant? Nope. But hey, at least they are allowed on stage. In professional ballet, they are way harsher for the girls.

Btw, this XXL girl is a heroin. I love her courage and moves.

Unfortunately that won't happen until she gets away from Cathy. Remember what she said in the first season - something like, "if Vivi said she wanted to play baseball I'd slit my wrists". As long as she's living under Cathy's roof she'll be limited in what she's allowed to pursue.

As for the OP's comments, I've never said anything negative on here about Vivi, but if I did it would be about her technique, not her appearance.

-I wonder if you can refuse to inherit the world.
-I think if you're born, it's too late.

I totally agree with you. But you could have left out the comment about middle-aged men.

tl;dr

You put yourself and your child out there like that, you're gonna receive criticism.

Deal with it.

The ugly comments, such as those about Vivi, is exactly why IMDB is taking the discussion boards away. Now I'm not saying it's wrong to express a negative opinion about something/someone but so many people on these boards are so disrespectful while doing so. It sucks that it has ruined it for the rest of us.
