Erin Madigan But I really don’t think that she doesn’t want to take responsibility for those other girls. Maybe this made Brooke realize that her being “the role model” meant she was responsible for molding the other girls. Hence making her resistant to coming to competition.

Okay when Abby told Paige that she wasn't important in her own family, that was inappropriate and manipulative. When Melissa trusts Abby to take care of Mackenzie and Maddie she's "treating her daughters as professionals", the double standards were blatant and unhealthy.
