about a year when the reality TV show Dance Moms aired. I remember constantly hearing different forms of the question; “Is it like dance moms?”, or “Is your teacher like Abby Lee?”. Of course I shot it down because I always thought that the show was a bad thing...partially because my mom never wanted me to watch it.
