Daily Rant

As you may know, I am the mother of a tried and true tween, who I’ll admit I am little jealous of because she knows sooooo much {eyeroll}. And I’m pretty liberal on how I raise them. I even use words like boobs, penis, and sex around my kids. Though, to be clear, not usually in the same sentence. However, as I mentioned in this post, I have some issues with how much skin she can show. I never, ever, ever, ever thought I would side with the conservative mommies I so gleefully mock.

But I am. This is so wrong, so awful, I am calling the mothers of these girls out. If I knew any of you, I would go to your house, smack you upside the head, and give you a big “WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!?!?!”.

What am I talking about? This. (this link might not work, the videographers keep trying to get it yanked…I’ll try to keep it updated.)

The song is awesome, and has a great message. Some of the dance moves are out of this world. And some are straight out of the world of “my ambition is to be slutty whore who makes her living sliding up down and pole.”

And the outfits?! You know the last time I saw outfits like that? Vegas. In a ‘special’ part of the casino, where the gamblers were entertained by ladies in skimpy costumes while they played blackjack. And, honey, if it’s tacky in LAS GODDAMN VEGAS…it certainly isn’t appropriate for your seven (Oh, yeah, you read that right S-E-V-E-N) year old daughter.

Jesus Christ, what were the mothers thinking.

    You know to me most of the dance moves are just fine and the kids are incredible talented. It’s the costumes, and the pairing of the kids with that songs, and, of course, some of the moves were…just…Oh. my. god.

    Oh, thanks for the feedback! And let me just say I have one of each, and I am envious of those with only boys sometimes.

    Yep, I agree – it was just so so so innappropriate. Not just the outfits, but the movements as well.

    but they are SO TALENTED, some of those moves were out of this world. The last thirty seconds, though, was just uncomfortable to watch.
