"You're acting like a fool Isabella! Turn on a smile right now or we're going home!" we hear her very firm mum say when they were in the bathroom. Couldn't see whether 3 year old Isabella produced a "smile" on demand but I instantly produced tears. Poor little Isabella.
And she said "yes mom..." 🤧
I got flashbacks to my own mum lol, not going to do it to my kids, but having a stage mum gave me unparallelled confidence and opportunities. I think it depends on the kid too, I have always been very competitive and I actually signed myself up for my first audition at age 2 because there was a signup sheet at my preschool with pictures of pretty "big girls", I was never told to stop crying if I hurt myself, but I would be fiercely whispered at if I was being a sore loser.
There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with a parent teaching a child, even at 3, that there are times you need to calm down, listen and do as your told. Children with no boundaries or expectations from their parents are brats!
@@reneesantiago6496 Well, that's formulated for parents who don't pimp their children out in beauty pageants.
Isabella to her mom: "you're upset?" Broke my heart.
The way she speaks so negatively when her THREE YEAR OLD makes a mistake is so gross. The grandma is so sweet and reassuring, I’m not sure where she went wrong with poor Isabella’s mom.
Maybee the grandmother is the mom of isabellas father?
Good point.maybe the grandma is paternal grandparent, or she realizes the mistakes she made raising her own daughter.
it drives me insane that she won’t shut up for two seconds while her daughters on stage like how tf is she suppose to do anything with someone barking at her
Have some compassion. If you were unfortunate looking and never achieved anything great for yourself, you’d probably be just as negative.
@@carltonwalton9819 Your comment makes me think of Charlie Brown. I suppose I would be negative, too, but I wouldn't think of having kids just to take it out on them.
No, lady, this is all about you, not your daughter. I feel sorry for her.
You wanna be famous, use TikTok or instagram. Don’t use your child as a bargaining chip for fame and wealth.
Foreal I saw her and was like poor baby 🥺💗
I was thinking the same thing. The mom was clearly doing it for herself.
This is gross. That mom needs a reality check.
I think her own mother needs a reality check as well, damn she acts spaced out and afraid of her daughter
Such a cute little girl! So sad that her mom uses her like that...she doesn’t deserves that. She should go out and play, not wear fake teeth and makeup
I agree with you. Her smile is beautiful. She doesn’t need fake teeth. My concern for the little girls in these pageants is that they grow up to be young women who think they are not pretty if they are not over the top
NO little girl deserves to go through this. It isn't just this little girl.
This mom actually said “ I shouldn’t have to keep telling you what to do “...LADY!! She’s 3 years old are you serious? She’s just learning how to use a dang toilet and you think she should remember a routine AND to smile a certain way while she does it?
Wow, you didn't potty train til your kids were three years old? I feel sorry for your stunted offspring. Sad
I did my first dance concert at this age. Half the kids in our group ran off crying during the routine. About three kids remembered the whole dance all the way to the end. That was with the teacher standing in the wings directing us
I don't think this mom knows the definition of positive reinforcement!
She's living in the parallel universe where delusion is reality
I hate Mother's like this, living their dreams through their daughters, and ruining their childhood's, they are kids not grown up beautiful women competing against each other. You should be ashamed of yourself putting your daughter through this, for your own selfish reasons, and damaging your child for life. Kids beauty pageants should be banned! Let kids be kids! You people make me sick, you should be ashamed of yourselves!
Same, people like that disgust me
Ugh. Whatever. Tired of people like yall that wana cancel/get rid of everything. If it brothers yall just simply f off.
@@ThePresentation010 uhhh...what are you talking about???
parents should not want to live there own lifes true there children...
thats called child abuse...
why dont you cancel big bird with cancoon cruz...
Yeah. Two things I like to see; sweet and kind mothers, and kids with happy and fun filled lives!
In some ways I agree mothers like that who live through their daughters are toxic. However, and it’s even present in one of the episodes where there was a mom who put her daughter with disabilities in a pageants to solely build up her daughters confidence and make her feel beautiful inside and out. In those cases that’s when pageants and pageant moms can be like doing it for the right reasons essentially. But I can’t say I know what to do that would fix it lol
This mom needs to learn patience! If her daughter doesn’t want to do this then let her stop! She’s only 3!
That little girl was sooooooooo much prettier and cuter without all that crud on her. She's a precious little doll. Anyone else agree that they should do kids pagents based off natural beauty and quirks?
They do have non glitz pageants based on natural beauty and talent. But I agree that glitz pageants can go too far
I don’t think we should be comparing the beauty of children period
@@tay2944 I totally agree. Every child is so beautiful and quirky and pretty just the way they are. I prefer the before over the after every single time
exactly
Where I live, they do it natural. No make up and they wear heirloom dresses that are long. This glitz is just creepy
Her daughter was absolutely beautiful, without any of the stuff on her. And she is such a sweetheart and has adorable personality. It’s a shame she’s got a mother that makes it all about her. That’s disgusting
Mom: "I don't push her."
Mom proceeds to push her the entire video.
Mom: "I use positive reinforcements."
Mom throughout the video: "No. No. No. Nope. No. No."
Exactly what I said
To many NO'S
You upset, she said😥
Horrible mom, let this child be
Oh my god this poor little girl. She can’t ever please her mum unless she’s doing exactly what she wants 24/7. “I use positive reinforcement” well as a child behavioural specialist I didn’t hear a single positive reinforcement in this entire clip.
That poor little baby. “Are you upset at me mummy”. Thank god for her Nanna being so amazing and loving otherwise I’m sure she’d get nothing but coldness.
She's 3. She's so tired. I would cry too. You don't yell at a tired 3 year old who is only crying because she's exhausted. She also needs to learn the definition of positive reinforcement.
Exactly! Saying she's "acting like a fool" when the little girl cried out of exaustion.
And "no" over and over again is not positive reinforcement.
That $35,000 investment at her age would probably pay for most of her college when she's 18.
Exactly and a lot of other things that can make this little girl thrive!
Not to mention health insurance what about homeschooling too
True that 😌
She's 13 or 14 now..m
Exactly my first thought!
god hearing her tell her mom “you’re upset...” broke me 😭😭😭 don’t think the mother realizes how much shit truly stays w you from this age. atleast the grandma seems to be sweet
I felt the grandma isn't a fan of the pageants. You could see several moments where she's uncomfortable with the way this sweet lil girl is being treated by her mama.... I feel bad for both the girl and her grandma honestly....
The woman tanning Isabella said it perfect, she’s a kid, she looks adorable and perfect just as she is. Imagine tanning a 3 year old?
I didn't even know kids that young were ALLOWED to do that... like tf am I seeing right now?! This woman ought to be ashamed of herself!!!!
This mother as well as others on the show gets frustrated and disgusted when their kids don't perform like perfectly trained circus seals.
MAYBE, Mom should have ordered a robot baby instead of getting pregnant with an imperfect human being!
@@lindadee34 I'm cremated....😂😂😂
There is something so wrong about a bunch of adults sitting around judging children on their beauty and poise
You can tell mom was either in the military or dad is in the military. it's an obvious vibe. Total control freak. So cute and sad..when the girl says " yes mama".
Wow I know I’m late but I was just thinking this. I thought “she would do great in the military….. wait maybe she already served ? “ cause I definitely got that vibe as well
She was. I found her. I’m nosy…ahem… curious. I got that same vibe and I had to find out. She reminds me of my mom. 😂 I hope Isabella develops thick skin.
Or she’s just abusive.
I put my daughter into dance class at three because she wanted to go, but as soon as she told me she did like it anymore I took her out. This little girl is going grow up never feeling good enough unless she wins. Even at six they are too young for these things though, it's not even about sport or exercise.
The poor grandma was cheering her on and tried to give her a hug but was pushed aside
Jeez she’s one of the most negative moms I’ve seen on the show. She takes it wayyyy too seriously and she’s so aggressive and hateful. She’s verbally abusive.
"I wish I didn't have to tell you what you have to do," says the mother of a THREE YEAR OLD.
Textbook narcissist mom
RIGHT?! Heck man... my 3 year old snuck and climbed my counter yesterday and poured blue and green food dye for Easter eggs all over my counter, cupboards, and floor.... LOL there is no such thing as being able to NOT tell a 3 year old what to do (or not to do!) 🤣🤣🤣🤣
At 5:41 made me sad when she asked her mom "Are you upset" 😢 this mom is making me upset 😡
This mother sucks. She embodies all that's wrong with certain mothers being too harsh with their kids at such young age. I know this was probably a long time ago but I really feel sorry for the little girl.
@@roxans5853 I totally agree with you. I feel bad for the little girl too
"As a mom you want what's best for your child"... Yeah right, like she's not doing this because she herself couldn't be a beauty pageant. Please love your kids and let them just be kids
Wow if this mother acts like that with a THREE YEAR OLD in front of NATIONAL TV CAMERAS imagine how abusive she is to that poor baby when no one is around?!
Young Mom doesn't know how to let a kid be a kid.She should be in a play group for fun with other 3 year olds.I think Grandma has the same idea
That $35 thousand could be better used for the child's education, or held in trust until she's 18-21.
"Isabella just loves to compete." Does she though? Really? I'm pretty sure Isabella is 3, and also loves to eat chicken nuggets and watch Dora or something...
Mama's obsessed, self centred, and has no limit setting when it comes to getting what she wants. Including tormenting her child.
She would have done so much better if the mum just shut up cos she kept looking at her🤦🏾♀️
That's what I said. Just leave her and she will do fine. She's the reason Isabella messed up.
@@Turquoise4eva Exactly! Who cares if she didn’t go to the exact x she was supposed to. She’s 3. Let the poor child do her thing. If she wouldn’t have demanded perfection out of her 3 year old and attempted to yell at the kid from afar about the X’s and placement on stage, she may have had some fun, it would have looked more natural, and I’m sure the judges would have chuckled and gotten a kick out of her silly mistakes given her young age. I feel so bad for her. Constantly looking for Mommy’s approval. My heart broke for her when she asked why her mom was so upset after she was berated for making a mistake and told how awful she did.
@@jaz2407 Unfortunately MANY do not deserve to have children.
When this child is grown, her mom is going to wonder why she doesn’t ever visit or want to speak to her.
Honestly I feel really bad for this little girl she can’t grow up to have a normal childhood because her mom is living through her and I can already guarantee you when she grows up and she tell her mom that she doesn’t want to do this anymore her mom‘s gonna absolutely flip
Actually, mom is a narcissist, and they don't truly "feel" much at all, except rage for people who don't do what they want them/ need for them to do-- in order for THEM to feel loved and wanted. In other words, "reverse"-parenting- parenting in reverse, because mom had a child to fulfill her needs and make her feel 'special", not the other way around.
Not fit to be called a Mother ,speaking to a 3 Yr old as if she was an 18 Yr old ,let your child have her childhood and go and do something worthwhile with yours 🤬
Is no one gonna talk about how the mum literally told her 3 year old her face and hair was a mess ? And we wonder why young girls grow up with esteem issues? smh.
This child needs to be taken into care for her protection. This woman is'nt fit to be a mother.
Isabella deserves to have a real mother.
They do pageants because they don’t like to do what everybody else does all the time? Really? That is a parents reasoning for putting their child in pageants? That’s absurd. All for show. Clearly that kid does not like doing it.
By the way, that child does not like to compete. That is all about mom. Not the child sad so selfish
Can parents please let kids be kids 🤦🏾♀️. It's great to help kids build their talents but the mom is pushing too hard
“She’s bombing. That was horrible!” What parent talks about their kid like that? You bomb as a mom, lady
This mother is living vicariously through her three year old daughter, and you can tell that the only time the daughter gets any actual positive reinforcement from her mother is when she does well in practice and on stage. It's sad to hear a mother tell a three year old "Your hair is a mess, your face is a mess". You just know that if she wasn't on camera and miced, she would have spanked that poor child for acting like a child...
You have a precious little girl and you torment her, you wicked witch.
oh my god smh. I hate that there’s SO many parents like this in the world. It’s sickening
These Pageant Moms are Crazy
It’s disgusting how these moms are living their dream lives through their daughters. She’s only 3 years old, of course she isn’t going to be able to focus and understand what to do in these pageants! Let her live her life as a 3 year old playing with toys and drawing with crayons!
This child performed amazing for a 3 year old. My son is 4 and I’d be hard pressed to get him to cooperate to do half of what Bella did. She was so compliant and just tried so hard for her mom, and it seemed like it was never enough. I hope the mom realizes her expectations are way too high
It's more disturbing that GROWN ADULTS judge these gentle and young girls like their some trained robot
Oh how her attitude changed when she was crowned when literally a few minutes ago she was screaming at her that she did horrible and that she’s not allowed to cry or that she didn’t do that good
I do not know how the grandmother kept her cool because if my daughter treated her daughter like this, I would be angry.
As a grandmother you have no rights to see your grandchild,your daughter in law can ban you from the children.
I was das inside but shut my mouth,and try to give all my love to minimize tue damage,because i know what can happen again when i say something.
@@susannlevy6625 I'm sorry to hear that, Susann. ❤
4:08 she relly think this is "Positive reinforcement"😱🤣🤣🤣
This title gave me a mini heart attack lmao🤦🏼♀️
What sort of parent does that to any child, let alone a 3 year old. It is tantamount to abuse!
I actually enjoyed pageants as a kid but I can relate to the pain this little girl was going through. My mom was a blonde head cheerleader so you know what that was probably like for me. I grew up with this constant nagging voice telling me every little thing was wrong with me. It got so severe at one point, I actually took a hammer to my nose in an attempt to flatten the bridge. It's such a dark and depressing way to live and nobody should be hard on their child like this, for mistakes or physical appearance. You have no idea the damage you're doing.
I'm soooo sorry you went through that!! Things like this video and stories like yours are exactly why any person who suggested my daughter could win a pageant I shut them down and said over my dead body will she ever do that shes gonna be a KID..... nope, this kinda stuff is exactly why. Again I'm very sorry you went through that......
This is the first time I have ever watched this type of video and I don't know if this is typical behavior for a pageant mom but this is disturbing to me. Maybe I am completely wrong because I have never seen anything about pageants before but she is 3 for crying out loud! Mom keeps saying things like "I don't push her" "If this is what she wants it's ok". A 3 yr old can not make decisions like that. It's abusive to put that kind of pressure on a baby then be mean to her when she acts like a baby.
Besides all of that, it's creepy to dress up a little girl with all of that make up and parade her around like she is an object to be ogled. I want the names of all the lecherous old men in the audience.
even telling her daughter what to do during crowning and the post show interview... ugh so controlling. i pray that child hasnt grown up to be miserable
Omg this poor baby! She’s 3!!! Of course she’s not going to be perfect at memorizing routines!
This is really sick!
To my opinion it's just child abuse.
Mom has a serious problem.
Instead of tlc making videos, they should report these to cps
@@mohammedmusa538 They won't because they wan't money.
It is child abuse!
I could not be a pageant judge. These lil ones are all super cute and special 💕 😍 💗
Wow that mother is out of control poor Isabella, all mom did was push her 🙄really upsets me
Omg!! She snatched her daughter away from her grandma who praised her and wanted to hug her! Disgusting
From my understanding of most glitz pageants (outside of this show) parents of children 3 years and under are asked that they don’t tan their children use much make up (no false lashes or massive amounts of anything) and they’re asked not to use flippers at that age too. I know several moms with pageant girls and they where told they would loose points for this. And they where in glitz pageants. 🤷♀️
“I don’t push her”
Pushes her….😢
This mum is truly dreadful
She’s soo mean to her baby!!! Not one time , she didn’t tell her good job !! Poor thing …
I just yelled "she's three!" about a hundred times ugh
so i was a competitive dancer from 3rd-11th grade and when i was at competitions i remember seeing little kindergarteners (if they were that old) on stage in full makeup and hair and thinking back i can only imagine what competing has done to their psyche… i am now extremely competitive and am only satisfied if i win or if i’m better than the person next to me because that’s how we were trained to be and it was so toxic amongst everyone because we were all pit against each other for the top spot in the teacher’s eye (i’m surprised they didn’t put us in pyramids like abby lee miller at the aldc because the competition between us sure as hell felt like it)
Of course she's okay with tanning.. I mean who doesn't know about the implications of it at this age... she will definitely thank you for the early wrinkles and possible skin cancer
It’s a spray tan!
spray tans dont cause wrinkles & skin cancer thats tanning beds lmao
Three years old " I shouldn't have to tell you what to do" she is only three!!!! . Poor kid.
What a beautiful girl ): poor, sweet baby
Oh I feel so bad for Bella!! I know these are old videos, but this mother's expectations for a 3 year old is way too high. Poor little girl!
Sweet little girl, who got more positive reinforcement from the lady comparing!!!
SHES 3!!! Her mom expects so much from a toddler it’s sad.
Coming up in parents, I always enjoyed myself. Why??? Because my mom was awesome! She stepped out of the way and let me do what I was trained to do! No yelling at me! Not making me feel terrible when some things went wrong with a presentation. My heart really breaks you these young one with mothers that won’t let them enjoy being beautiful and be their selves.
I am always astounded by the manner in which the parents - especially the mothers - treat their daughters. The daughter here is literally *three years old* but the mother makes demands of her & chastises her like she’s a teen, as well as treating her like a doll, an object to be controlled, or more so like an untrained puppy whose mother is either tossing treats at her to make her obey or yelling at her. She’s closer to a toddler than small child really - & the mother’s expectations for her are absolutely absurd.
If the mom just sat down and let the little girl do her thing she would've been fine. The judges probably hear mom in the background smh.
These "mums" get totally carried away with these pageants.
What mom tells their kids they’re being a fool for not smiling? They’re babies!
She’s 3 she cannot make an informed decision about being tanned, so saying it’s ‘her skin’ is just the mum making excuses for herself
Bless her she asked mum if she is upset 😞 poor thing
that was so hard to watch. Poor sweet 3 yr old girls mother was a bully control freak. what a nightmare woman. I hope she saw this on tv and realised she was so mean to her baby and changed. Little girl could do nothing right in her eyes
This lady looks so beautiful and sweet and then she opened her mouth.
Giving puppies and kittens as prizes is almost as appalling as the pageants themselves. Pets are a lifetime commitment, not a prize in a competition.
Im old now lol but i was in this $;\+ as a child. We were never home on weekends. I got no invites to bday parties, sleepovers, no school dances (jr high)
It absolutely (teen yrs, young 20's, and up to this very day) everything revolves around looks. Everytime as a 5-10 yr old you dont win the Top Title, you feel ugly or not good enough. I was a disappointment to my momma & she had no prob lettin me know how ugly and fat i was. Its always about what your parents think or feel. This is awful
I'm so sorry for you, no one deserves that
*Hug* I'm sorry that happend to you. I'm sure that you're beautiful, sensitive, wonderfull woman. You didn't deserved to be treated this way. No child deserved this
I love how the mom considers restraint to be a 'shortcut' versus just people choosing not to force so much fashion expectations and requirements onto their child. Maybe that's her excuse for it.
The mom saying it's okay for her to get tanned if she wants to, b/c it's her body and her skin.
Excuse me lady. How can a three year old understand the consequences of skin cancer? That's your responsibility to protect your daughter. Child neglect and abuse!
“I can do it better than you” ooooh that’s relationship is gonna fun when she’s a teen
Lots of things are wrong but PUPPIES AS PRIZES?!?
Isabella is probably the cutest kid I've ever seen. I did not approve of her mom making remarks about her daughter.
How disgusting tanning that little girl,wtf is wrong with these parents
Perfect example of living the life you wanted through your kids
Her handling and grabbing at Isabella looks like child abuse. The way she talks to her is disgusting. Of course this mother who wanted to be in pageants is living through her child. Feel sorry for Isabella.
This little girl is adorable!!
is no one going to talk abt the little girls mum forcing her to dress up as another culture for a pageant???????
$35,000 investment in this age child’s pagent career is INSANE and puts way too much pressure on the poor kid.
It's so sad to think that this poor little girl is going to wind up eating a lot of psychological help from having a mother that is acting like this
The judges had to see and hear the Mother. I wonder after all of these years how the girl feels now about all of those pageants.
I feel terrible for this baby. Spray tanned skin and geisha girl routine were bad enough, then this awful mother treated Isabella the entire pageant except the nap as if she's 13 not 3 years old. It verges on TLC needing to place a CPS call....
The mom needed to calm down
I feel for this little girl… she just wants to play and be a kid- and her mom is using her as a doll.
