[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw my 12 year old doing this dance by herself in the living room, and I told her to stop because that was a stripper dance and not appropriate. She had seen other girls do it at sleepaway camp during a dance party and also most likely on social media. She didn't seem to realize that it was an inappropriate dance. The lines are definitely blurred these days with cheerleaders and celebrities performing these kinds of modified lap dances. [/quote]

OP here. I am clearly a bad parent. My kid doesn’t have tiktok on her phone but does dances when using mine - and we talk about what she posts and what others post etc. and she has tons of activities to limit her screen time. But we also live in reality. When her friend groups and most of the extended friend groups get together they are doing these fads. Go ahead and judge.

I didn’t plan to say to this mom her kid was inappropriate- it’s not out of pearl clutching vs being worried about a little girl who is doing heavily sexualized things without having a clue about what they are and posting them - and others can then see them too. I think it’s highly likely this mom has no idea what idea what her kid is doing and also would then maybe talk to the kid about it maybe. These kids are so young and really don’t get how sexual these things are. I have heard so many Moms talking about how their kids aren’t on tiktok or Snapchat or other forums - but I’ve seen all their kids dances in posts. [/quote]

You sound like a good parent and kind soul to me. [/quote]
