I have always been in your corner. No matter who thought they knew everything...I would say to them that no one can even imagine handling that many kids at once (and staff and producers, etc.) and keeping a huge smile all day every day! She even put off having her own kids to take care of others!!! Anyway you seem like a great lady. I hate what you went through but I know it made you stronger. Keep that smile because it's beautiful. I only wish I was closer and could get my little girl into your studio! ☺️

[@surlywithfabshoes]

I think the thing that people don’t get is that you really can’t give the same level of choreography to each student and expect a 7-way tie. Some kids aren’t as advanced as others and you don’t send a kid onstage to tumble with bent legs or fall out of turns. You work with what they do best. And, no, it may never score first place. As long as a kid is working up to their potential and has a good attitude, they are really competing against themselves. Not every kid is a Maddie. And that’s fine.

[@lanifmx]

thats true but the reason maddie improved so much trough the seasons only because she got all the love and appreciation

Thank you again Miss Abby! I wasn’t a dancer. I competed in the equestrian discipline of Dressage. My favorite trainers were the ones who pushed me, held me accountable and yes, were quite blunt with me if I was inattentive, snotty or continuing to make the same mistakes over and over! The way you get frustrated about a kids feet- my trainer would get frustrated with me about my left wrist! That specific! She called it the claw! I have always respected the pivotal people in my life who had the strength and resilience to help me be the very best I could! You are an amazing person and I really love watching your videos! 🌻🦋

I think the “never” is referring to the fact that felons can’t adopt kids in the US, and Abby is a felon. I don’t agree with that, but it is the unfortunate truth.

@@infinitybauer1187 I don't believe she said "never," but rather she implied that her time has passed (I suppose I was the one to say never). From the info I've been able to find, felons can adopt but it depends on things like the crime and the number of convictions (and Abby's particular case probably wouldn't bar her from adopting).

[@karlyr9885]

Hi Abby, hugs from 🇨🇦. My favourite part of your teaching is that you are tough on the kids, you push them to do their best because you care. I honestly wish my daughters teachers were stricter with her. They love her to bits but sometimes they let the kids get away with too much. I looked into taking my daughter to your booty camp but unfortunately it conflicts with her studios mandatory intensive camp. Show idea 💡 travel across North America stopping at different dance studios for a surprise class 😊😍 our studio is wheelchair accessible.😉

You can say what ever you want about her but she's a "standup every time whatever life throws at you" (no pun intended here) - kind of person! And if anyone should be blamed for the "toxicity" on Dance Mom's it's the producers of the show! Abby was kind of a chess figure like the Moms and their kids but the producers and the network were the ones exploiting them from day one! And I bet Abby had a ton of regrets over the years...!

I was taught ballet, tap, jazz, gymnastics, lyrical and actually break dancing! I was on a traveling team! I WANTED a career in dance!!! One school I went to from 3-6 years old was just for kids who wanted to dance. I WANTED A CAREER in dance and changed Dance Schools. They were a little bit more strict and my peers ALL have careers in dance! Cruise ships, Disney, Rockettes, have their own dance studios, etc. I stayed with that Studio but was accepted into a VERY STRICT ballet school. We were weighed, corrected, were expected to fix certain corrections the FIRST time we were told to do so! So, I have complete respect for you! Because if people do not want to have a CAREER in dance then go to a studio that doesn’t teach you terminology, doesn’t correct you, and is not strict in their learning!!! And doesn’t teach about not always being the best!
