So weird... so wrong... and so funny.
Oh man how I laughed watching this video... Low budget video clip + bad wardrobe + singer that looks like a chipmunk. SUCCESS!!!

Hahahah... The best is when he shows up in a mirrored effect. Gold!

I can't tell you how much of this inappropriate (for kids) stuff I see at my daughter's dance competitions.

Sometimes it's the song that's inappropriate. Sometimes it's the choreography. Sometimes, it's both.

I'd swear the some of these parents are paying dance studios to teach their kids how to grow up on the pole.

None of it is this low budget, though.

It reminds me the little miss contests... The mothers transform their little girls in tiny little whores, and it seems OK, people think it's cute. I just can't get it.
Why kids in these contests can't just act like kids?

Because a stage mom living vicariously through her kid doesn't want to be a kid...

pole dancing pays better than most entry level jobs...and they'll save on college tuition (she can "put herself through school"--or at least tell the patrons that)

Because there's nothing unique about a kid acting like a kid; no matter how cute it is.

I will say this about the dance environment, though ... most of the kids at least seem to enjoy what they are doing, rather than being nothing more than dress-up dolls for their parents.

Still, I have made it a primary objective in life to keep my daughters off the pole. I'll be damned if I will let them go on stage and do anything that I think is inappropriate. Thankfully, we found a studio director that agrees with that philosophy.

Sarcky,

I'll spend every penny of my retirement before I will allow that to happen.

Tim, good idea...it would be awkward if your daughters ended up featured on YBNBY one day....

Re-reading that sentence ("primary objective in life to keep my daughters off the pole") also sounds like all dads and their policy re: daughters dating before marriage.

I'm on that with you, Tim. I wouldn't allow my daughter to do such thing, neither would my wife. We have a solid opinion about it.
And she looks more tending to be a musician than a dancer. Have I told that she plays the harmonica? As good as a 1 and a half years old can play... hahahah... but she just loves it.

Leo, the harmonica?
Just watch that when she gets older no guy tries to divert that talent to other paths.....

I'm aware of that Sarcky... She'll be well taught.

Ahhh--the "kick all boys except for Daddy in the 'nads" school of thought.....

I'll try not to be this kind of dad.
I intend to teach her what's right and what's wrong and hope she learns it.
But if that boy try to step to the second base, KICK HIS NUTS!
