>>How is that any different than any music video for just about every song that they make today?<<
It really isn’t that different other than being poorly executed. Part of the conflict you see among the commenters on WSB web site is generational - the MTV generation sees that kind of dancing as normal.

First off , why is it that all of you older women are calling these younger girls names. I am an 11th grader at Jonesboro High School , I’m not taking up for them because i go there but because someone should reather than putting them down . If anything you should be trying to prevent these types of comments from going forth about these young ladies( YES YOUNG LADIES). You can’t help what they don’t know , i’m sure most of their parents did not know about them doing these type of dances. You also have to look at it from every perspective . Look at who these girls idolize where they get the dances from if that’s what they see all day everyday then how can you not expect them to conform to what society has put into them as cool. I see what you all mean by it shouldnt have gone forth as a dance. I understand that they showed not one bit of respect for themsleves but if they do not know better how can you expect better ??? Besides it was approved by the adminastrators so why punish the dancers when it was shown to the overseers. So who’s to blame now ?? <<
If they ran this routine by an adult in charge, then the girls should be re-instated and the adult should be bearing the brunt of this. This girl may not have posted the full story, but just what she know about it. And she may be wrong.
Yes, if this was approved by the admins, they are the ones that should be held accountable. There is always a “responsible and accountable adult”. You are a “child” until you are 18.
If I had written that when I was in the 11th grade, I’d have failed English.
Despite her terrible English she makes some good points. The adults who sanctioned this were primarily to blame.
The boys' only contribution to the routine was to ogle the girls. Next time, instead of sitting there drooling, they might at least offer dollar bills for the girls to slip into their waistbands.
