They chose not to deal with her anymore. As adults they don't have too.

[@chayo4537]

She's delusional! She doesn't take responsibility for anything. She should be embarrassed that the show that she's now conveniently saying is NOT hers (when she loved to act like it was her show and creation) didn't invite her to be a part of anything dance moms related

[@JoeParrish-un4gn]

It was the producers the producers made her do all that stuff to them. You can’t put blame all on her you making her seem like she’s a monster it’s a reality show producers and people behind-the-scenes manipulate stuff to make it seem like there’s drama so you have to blame the producers nobody’s blaming the producers, I blame the producers. They made her say those things it’s a real reality show you know producers orchestrate stuff to make it seem like cast members are angry and fighting but it’s not really that.

[@leinaleilani]

⁠@@JoeParrish-un4gn abby is a grown woman. no one can make someone do anything they don’t want to. abby could have refrained from saying things about her students and their mothers but she didn’t. in my opinion, the production company has protected abby all these years because she’s said and done horrible things on and off screen and she still has a platform.

[@sweetreny1155]

​@@leinaleilaniExactly I'm so glad you are standing up for the kids/adults now.

[@jonathancineus6424]

There’s nothing to say to Abby.

[@vanemartinez2986]

Did Abby forget that kids grow up and make their own decisions. So if you treated them bad at a young age don’t be surprised if they stopped talking to you

[@olivedabove]

Thanks to the show they have the lives they have now, but not thanks to Abby yelling at them, bodyshaming, manipulating and stunting their dance technique with her basic gimmicky routines. She admitted to torturing Chloe because she knew they were stuck in their contact &had to put up with her.... Why would she wanna face you?!!?!

[@RockyMountainHoosier]

The girls didn't want her there -- and the way she talked about those girls who could blame them?

[@nellieken]

She knows she wouldn't be where she is today without the show and those girls

[@throatgoattracy.1]

Abby is so evil. Yes Kelly brought her kids to Abbys studio but abby ego got the best of her since the show started. You could’ve seen how Abby and the Hylands relationship went down hill every season. Also the contracts were the reason they couldn’t just leave the show even tho kelly wanted to get off since season 1.

[@meganarndt5164]

I think Kelly and Christi also stated at one time in their podcast that Abby didn't really work with the kids when they were young. Abby worked mainly with the senior company until the show started.

[@BrandonPeak]

You know what Abby, if you’re not happy because my kid won’t sit here and smart mouth you, we will leave!!

[@MalibuDollface]

Learn to leave well enough ALONE.

[@kaitlynamira3916]

They literally acknowledged that they wouldn’t have the opurtunities they have had without the show. They literally said that on the reunion so I’m not sure what Abby is talking about.

[@izzy_tdofcc]

They don’t have to deal with her, she put them through so much mental abuse and was constantly screaming at them daily and made them feel like crap. if they don’t wanna speak to her or deal with her then they don’t have to point blank.

[@pattyfigueroa5609]

Felicidades que haya cosas nuevas del reality show de dance Mom's.

[@piaffequeenm1945]

And she was a no one until the show. It was because of them not you that they became famous.

[@charlieverto-ey2bp]

It was the show Abby not you. You treated many of those kids poorly. Stop trying to take credit for their success. You didn't do that they did it on their own. The only kids you helped were Maddie and McKenzie. IMO you did not teach them Gianna did the choreography. Stop playing victim. Alls you cared about was your 10%. So glad Kelly and Christie didn't give o to you. They are well rounded girls and you may have taught them etiquette but you humiliated them aren't. How does it feel to be shunned or made to look like a fool. U are an adult they were children.

[@user-hx4bv6ur4u]

She’s exactly right

[@who4259]

Look at what happened after the girls left. Abby knows she needs them...

[@user-hx4bv6ur4u]

Hold your head up high Abby you would not have so many people commenting and loving dance moms. You was the biggest character in the main character of it all. You’re an amazing choreographer and I thought you were a good teacher. I don’t see how you put up with half of those moms it’s wrong they don’t want you there. You honestly brought them where they’re at today

[@user-hx4bv6ur4u]

I think the reason most of the girls feel the way they do is because I have their moms would sit up there and down Abby left and right face it Abby you sit back and enjoy yourself because you know if it wasn’t for you and your teaching and your knowledge on dance none of these girls would be a star today. You are strong you’re awesome keep kicking it keep doing it Abby we love you.

[@labellav1103]

I was researching this show and Heard several times that the producers wanted to "AMP UP" the drama! And that Abby wasn't even suppose to be in the show like that but they saw her "character" and put her in just for that reason. I get it the kids had to go through so much but the mom's was just as guilty keeping them there. They wanted that "fame" more than the kids obviously and some got that. Its funny people bashing the show but tuned in every week just for the drama keeping those ratings up. lol

[@vanemartinez2986]

Abby wouldn’t have been where she is now if it wasn’t for the show either so idk what her point is

[@Lexie_Warren]

Good trauma????? Can someone please get JoJo the definition of the word trauma?

[@JasmineS-gc6tg]

Everyone’s replaceable!

[@stefansnellgrove]

She always play the victim when she bullied those girls including critiquing their physical appearances and medical conditions like Chloe’s eye which honestly isn’t even noticeable to be honest.

[@gr82bdanyelle]

I agree Abby was horrible to certain kids and if she wasn’t horrible to u than u witnessing it had just a much of an impact. However, their moms kept them on the show for season after season. All the blame should not go on Abby. Their parents exposed them to that abuse & should have took the initiative to leave. But instead like most parents of kids in this industry, they put up with abuse or some mess to further this child’s “career”.

[@creativesparks2164]

Does she not get it? It got famous cause how psychotic she was to children. No one would show up if she was there. It’s either 1 is left out or no one shows up. They wouldn’t be able to speak freely if she was there

[@ajf369]

Melissa cant face her because melissa had something to do with Abbeys jail time. Snakey woman

[@dyoung3648]

That is disgusting...she made them...maybe her style really hurt them emotionally? I taught Abbey Lee when she was 8 years old at the Marian Lorraine Dance studio...her wonderful Mother!! They need to talk it out...

[@rosannesweitzer4778]

Abby is egotistical and a narcissist !!! She hates everyone !!! She only cares about herself !!! If she was on the reunion , I wouldn't have watched it !!! But , I don't think the girls were able to really say anything about Abby , because of the BAD producers !!!! They're the ones who caused most of the drama . But Abby was the worst !!! I don't like her !!! 👯👯‍♀️👯‍♂️

[@WizarcOfozOfficial]

They are scared of her that why they keep on bully her when she not there anymore

[@Bama-girl]

She literally caused them mental trauma so yeah if Abby gets bullied because of doing that to kids then she brought it on herself

[@digitalgf]

@@Bama-girlooooh so u think bullying is acceptable? two wrongs make a right? gotchaaa

[@coochiedestroyer5_]

@@digitalgfgirl how are they bullying her😭 they just don’t want to talk about her.

[@timmojennings]

It’s been over for sooooooo long no one cares at all
