    As a disabled person the narrative “I don’t let my disability stop me” is so harmful. Sometimes you need to let your disability stop you for your own health and safety. Plus saying that may encourage others to push far past their limits, something I’ve learned the hard way MULTIPLE times. The treatment of all the kids is disgusting but the treatment of sick and/or disabled kids is barbaric.

      My disability is degenerative and progressive. When I first became an adult I put everything I could into my work and pushed myself to try to be successful. I'm 22 and my body is shot. I can't do half of the things I did at 15. I hate to think how I'll be even at 30 or 40.

      It's such a damaging statement and just is used to exploit disabled people. Like sure, don't let it stop you which is why accomodations are being made to help those with different disabilities, but don't let it kill you and dance through a bleeding ripped open wound and such

      Not really. Yes it's used by abusive parents. But it's also used my good people. It's hard telling my kids no, especially when it makes them so sad. But the flip side would be to give in to everything and that is a horrible parent. Sometimes, as a mom, I have to be tough when it's the best thing for my child. Now my daughter is almost 17 and we have an amazing relationship. Here's an example of my tough love with my daughter. When she was 11, she flirted with anorexia. I had that and know the damage it causes. I gave her an ultimatum. She eats at least one good meal a day and fruit throughout the day or I have her hospitalized and fed 5000 calories a day through a feeding tube. She eats. This choice is still in effect even though she knows no dr would feed her a 5k calorie diet a day. The other major deal breaker rule is she must stay in contact. If I try to call her and she ignores for very long, I'm going to get scared and she will be grounded. Is that tough love? In my opinion it is. Is that abusive? Absolutely not. Maybe you mean something other than this as tough love, but I think tough love (my definition of it) is crucial to being a good parent.

      Because you don't have to legally pay children for social media (laws haven't caught up and they are still thinking of children being on family channels, not stuff like this). They were paying them for rehearsals and performances, not for the things for their TH-cam channel, TikTok's etc. If that isn't things that you have to pay for I don't know how they fit into labour laws.

      Many specific things listed in this video that the XOM Pop girls went through are direct copies of what JoJo and the Dance Moms girls went through. JoJo alleged that she was more afraid to tell her mom that she didn't want to wear bows anymore than she was to come out to her. Lo and behold, Kinley was barred from abandoning the bows and ankle scrunchies by Jess and JoJo. JoJo also recalled a time where she was so exhausting from performing while deathly sick that she had to be carried back to the dressing room. Viola, Leigha also had to be carried back to the dressing room by her father because she was made to perform while tired and ill. History often repeats itself, but the specific way that it does in this case is almost poetic. It explicitly shows how JoJo is repeating cycles.

She has stood by problematic people for YEARS, which has most recently shown up in the way she defames Colleen Ballinger's victims and fights tooth and nail to defend her. Now, it's finally come out that she is abusing her own victims rather than just disbelieving someone else's. She was exploited and abused her whole life and is repeating the cycle. Sad but predictable.

      100%, as someone who was a victim of childhood abuse, I have so much empathy for anyone else who lives through that experience. It's soul-destroying. It changes who you are as a person. It's something most people can't understand, and it makes you feel like a freak, like you're living in isolation because you can't relate to other people's normal. But even at my lowest, I knew that I would rather die than be like my abuser. To this day, I work with children, and I would die before I did to them what my parents did to me. You make the choice to be different. It's so sad to see Jojo choosing not to be, when she has so much influence and fame she could do such good with.

      @@hnichole I think now that she’s moved away from her family she might start to get a realization. (Keep in mind my OG comment cause I’m tired and feel like I might word what I’m about to say as excusing her unintentionally) as a young teen it was literally a trend online for people to hate her, make fun of her etc. during this time she also largely only hung out with 1) her mom (who I’d call her main abuser) 2) Abby (her most public abuser) and 3) adult TH-camrs exploiting her for views because “Jojo from dance moms is on MY?! channel?”, and a fair number of these TH-camrs have been found to not have the best relationships with kids. If that was her support system while seemingly the world was on a hate campaign against her that’s gotta fuck up her feelings/thoughts about things. On that same note because of the hate I think everyone made her numb to any criticism coming from social media. I obviously do not know her personally so my opinion means less than Jack shit, but I do genuinely believe that Jojo is a good person who has not realized the harm done to her, and in turn the harm that she did/encouraged/allowed to happen to at least the ex members of XOMG pop. I genuinely really hope that her finally and legitimately being on her own will at least open the smallest crack, and then that crack might lead to her getting into therapy, and as unfortunately awful it would be for her, that the floodgates will finally open. Unfortunately no one can make her see the harm she’s done yet, because I truly don’t even think that harm she’s dealt with has even occurred to her yet.
      I just want to clarify again that I’m am by no means trying to excuse her of anything, I personally have unfollowed her and don’t have any plans to consider refollowing her unless those floodgates open (and I’m still debating where I stand with the actual XOMG accounts cause I want to support the kids but not those in charge of them). But for anyone who does still choose to follow JoJo, please remember what I said about how I think the hate made her numb to criticism from the internet. I’d definitely keep mentioning things, asking for a statement, etc. but at the end of the day legitimate hate I have a strong feeling is going to do way more harm than good.

In my country they aren't even allowed to have a paycheck of less then 4.31 dollars every hour (Age 15). From 18, you are getting 7,20 dollars every hour (Minimum).

    I get that Jojo’s childhood wasn’t all that great, but that doesn’t mean that innocent children, some with disabilities, should have to pay for your jam-packed childhood. On that note, children with disabilities shouldn’t be exploited for money. These are children, not pets. There are so many Dance Moms parallels that it’s insane. Dance Moms was toxic and abusive. Why would you want future generations to suffer the same thing? Personal opinion, but anyway I feel like they chose children with disabilities because they knew that they could control them to some degree.

      It was obvious when they chose who the final girls were that they went with as much diversity as they could. Bella was eliminated early on and was suddenly in the group after the show ended. Speculation is that it was so that they could add on another diversity as they didn't have anyone Hispanic in the group (even had her sing some lyrics in Spanish in some of their songs).

JoJo, now a grown-up, is either a narcissist herself (very likely since she was near-exclusively raised in her mother’s influence and the lack of a safe environment that is), or she will have MANY narcissistic traits. She has NEVER BEEN entirely out of the shared-delusion of that a narcissist (here, her mother) makes you live in: one where She is always right, she is always a victim, ANYTHING you achieve had better be attributed to and in support of Her, and if you don’t meet these standards you are BERATED and taught to feel lucky just to get out of that abusive state;;

    jojo and jess also bought kinley a puppy in dec of 2022 (then heard dallas also got a puppy from them)
    clearly they tried the ziegler treatment with kinley as she was arguably the favourite and having her in pigtails with scrunchies to stay as cute and young for as long as possible being marketed as the new mini jojo.
    i can guarantee the girls were compared to kinley aswell as kiya was on SDPR before kiya dyed her hair.
    also kinley was the one who brought the views as arguably again she was the fan favourite along w leigha so i assume they tried to keep the cutesy stuff with her to get the siwas money.

      @jalapeno1119 Yeah. It's not okay, but I think people figure there are "good stage parents" or "healthy child star" environments. There aren't. There are no "good people" in children's entertainment.

    I’m actually not surprised.. JoJo still says she got succes because of dance moms and that she is greatfull for Abby Lee, basically saying she is happy that she grew up in an environment where most of the girls have gotten huge trauma and don’t ever want to talk about. JoJo & Jess now doing the same thing fits in how I picture them… idolising and talking good about an Abuser, to being one too.
    Although for JoJo I’m just a bit concerned or sad as well.. she might have never been in a real save environment. If Jess also teached her dancing trough screaming and punching her kid trough pain, then JoJo might not know a different way of training.

      I'm wondering if they even know that. They wanted to create a group version of JoJo now that she had aged out. It was supposed to be a new project for Jess now that she didn't have to be on set with JoJo anymore. Watching the group there were so many things that they should have had sorted out before they formed the group that they were still playing with and changing even in the second year.

    So disappointing. I hope Jojo is able to unlearn the harmful behaviors that was normalized to her. As for the girls, I hope the girls who left have the best new opportunities. And the current members, If Jojo and her mom cant change their ways hopefully they leave too. The girls are all so talented. Jess and Jojo just destroying their own group.

    I as someone who has been dancing since I could walk, most of this I have experienced dancing and it is unfortunately very common in this industry. I remember also being very sick backstage with a 103 fever throwing up the entire show because the teacher told me to suck it up. I hope that the dance industry stops promoting abuse to little children. This is all so common it is just sad.

    Is that Leigha from Alyssa's/Justin's Beyond Belief Dance Co.?
    Also, Jojo has clearly drunk the Kool-Aid and thinks that the treatment she faced as a child was justified due to the position she is in now. It is also reflected in her saying "that's just how the dance world is". That is exactly what people said about USA gymnastics until over 150 girls and women were in a court room giving victim impact statements. These discourses and narratives are so dangerous because they encourage children to stay (and parents to keep their children) in toxic or ab*sive environments.

    • @amandamandamands

    If you were to put personal opinion aside, you can gather that she is a victim of abuse. That is evident from watching her grow up in the public eye. She was always told that she was special and was a star and had so much pressure out on her. We forget how different these young children who grow up in the spotlight lives are from our own. It’s ironic that everybody is speaking up on behalf of Nickelodeon child actors, but berating her at the same time. I’m not condoning her actions, but I also am under the impression that she has yet to realise and understand that she is a victim of abuse, and with her status, she may fail to recognise the immorality of how she’s treated these girls. I wouldn’t be surprised if in 10-20 years a #justiceforjojo will be trending. She is an adult, but a young adult at that and all of her words and actions are on display for the world to see. I didn’t have perfect ideologies at 20 and neither did a lot of us. I hold the blame against her mum for most of these actions, for either directly causing them or raising her daughter under the belief that it is acceptable.

    We, as “fans” and viewers, need to hold ourselves accountable. Jess has made herself very clear in her mindset and dynamics way back since AUDC. She was clear she wanted fame, attention, etc, and was going to make sure Jojo was there along for the ride. Sure, some of it could’ve been edited, but the patterns were still evident. None of this is really shocking. Yet, some still wanted to continue to support Jess and Jojo despite all this… will this be when enough is enough, or are we gonna wait for more situations to occur?
