At my high school the teachers didn’t grade us equally if not everyone did their part. They asked team members to give feedback on other team members’s contributions. I was brutally honest because I usually carried the group.
Toddlers are always having emotional breakdowns. Everything is so new to them, and they don't know what to do, so they get catharsis through crying until they understand that the new thing isn't dangerous
@@offbeat65 Honestly I'm not exactly sure either. If this becomes a core memory I hope their parents showed pride and gave comfort afterwards, otherwise she's just gonna hate doing… anything like this at all. All in all it went well. There was no disaster. I still remember when the big building with a show going on shouted on the mic LOOK A CHILD WITHOUT PANTS as i was 3 and walking bottomless out of the car and my parents assured me it was another child and in retrospect f××× everything just erase that day from my memory or my life altogether thank you very much
I adored the little one in blue, who kept pointing to her as thou to say "she's distressed. Someone help her." And looking at the audience in confusion because they just laughed and clapped. Understood that someone needed comforting but didn't understand the resulting emotional response from the crowd. Tried several times to help... wanted to give them all a hug. To young to be preforming to such a huge crowd.
I'm pretty sure she's crying because she doesn't want to be on stage and afraid of all the people, but dancing is the only thing she remembered to do in that moment.. Edit: why tf are there so many likes?
Ok, when you word it like that, it's very precious. In that moment, all she knew was dance. (I was so relieved when her teacher or mother came to get her at the end.)
I honestly just Commented something like this. Like poor girl she's like a baby and is probably really shy or has stage fright. But ty for this comment. I also didn't like or subscribe to this. It feels wrong to even joke about the actual situation or feelings of tht poor girl. Let her cry if she cries. Fuck ppl are just so mean....💯
She represents everyone who going through a tough time, but still carrying on with life. It's actually funny, crying with all the pressure still dancing but at the same time inspiring.
I'm a teacher she was overwhelmed by the audience , but at the same time she wanted to do well . She does well under pressure.She will do well in any endeavor she decides to undertake in life.
@@mlem6951 Why are you trying to pick an argument? Do you have the Christmas blues? I'm sorry, try to have a Merry Christmas anyway. Going to go have Christmas dinner with my husband who has a masters degree from John Hopkins University and our friends Happy Holidays!
i actually think its vice versa, as I child I didn't care and danced on the street. Then grew up and all harsh critic made me leave dancing. Now I prefer to dance only if no one can see
When you have anxiety but you're the only one in the team that can do a very good presentation with detail (Goodness, welcome my people who also have anxiety)
Sure she cried because of how overwhelming it was to perform in front of a crowd and the noises, but she pulled through. She's going to be a hard worker when she's older because she perseveres well. An example of real bravery for someone that small. What a trooper and an inspiration! Kids are so self-conscious, they will always think you’re laughing at them. If they don’t think what they’re doing is funny, they’ll cry. Cover your laughter with cheers and encouragement
@@cintiapollock2486 yes I saw comments about how if they were the parents I would have taken her off when she first started to cry. I didn’t bother to say then you would have taught your child to give up when things get scary. This will be something they can say when other things are hard. Remember when you cried but you finished your dance and everyone was cheering.
These children are too young to "feel laughed at" and experience the type of feelings you imply by this situation. That takes perspective and awareness that doesn't develop until later.
@@WifeofaJer I wouldn't be driving if it wasn't for my Mom and l wouldn't have my degree either. I have been terrified of life for as long as l can remember. It's about having the perseverance, resilience, courage and strength to work your way through those uncomfortable feelings/trying situations.
She's obviously seriously overwhelmed but she pushed through and faced her challenge. Her little clap when she thought it was all over before Gangnam style came on 🥺🥰
Absolutely love how at about 0:38, the girl in the blue just straight up points at the girl doing everything like "yeah, what shes doing, I dont have to do anything just look at her."
I feel like his parents might have pointed out to the girl to show that he should do the choreo like her but he didn't know what to do with this informationen. LOL
I love how she just gradually moved to hide behind the other girl after she performed the whole first routine. She was like. I'm done, someone else take over 😮💨😂❤️
I think she moved few step behind, because the coreography should be all the team member made a circle. I watch the other group, when the dance finish, they all standing in a circle form. 😅
@@retno.s.wibowo 3:30 huh, a circle? maybe that was the choreography who knows, but the other group is still in a row. where do you see them form a circle?
I really think she was just scared of the loud sounds. If you notice, she stops crying momentarily before the 2nd song comes on, but seems more scared during the 2nd performance because the audience is constantly clapping and it's a lot louder than the first performance was. She didn't seem particularly scared of the people at first, but when the clapping started up, she went to hide behind one of the other little girls.
Jokes aside adults are clapping to a thing thats torturing someone whatever the reason is. What do these adults want from them at their age to memorize things like literally...are you even adults bcz this thing doesnt make you look like it at all. They have to memorize things all the time in their life for future so let them be at peace atleast in this age but no you all are setting stage to show people the so called choreo you made them learn in whatever way to show their cuteness even if they ball their eyes out on stage, stand still, do nothing. At end of the day its a toddler who cant remember all the stuff let them live at peace atleast and eliminate such type of trend. Even though a sinhle comment cant do anything but still people should be aware bcz anxiety, traumas any type of mental issue we are not born with it such incidents are the cause of it which only make them bigger in future and we dont know how any incident will effect every person.
@@nightfury1923 I mean it's just a way for the kids to have fun (unless they're forced into it) but I agree with this person it's just the loud music & people that scared her..
My son would be doing the same thing. Way too loud but wants to perfume task he’s been training to do. Poor little one. She was absolutely adorable and a great dancer though!!
Awe!!! I want to go there and scoop her up in my arms and let her know it's ok. Bless her little heart! She's not a quitter!! She will go far because she won't let the things that scare her stop her. God bless this child.
You shouldn’t laugh. It’s clear that she’s the one who’s had the routine drummed into her so hard that it’s not only sucked all the joy out of performing but the fear of getting it wrong and what happens to her as punishment is causing her to have a break down. And at such a young age. Pray for this child.
@@clod8 Yeah i'm not pointing fingers, but looks like she is looking at someone doing the dance and confused like the others but forcing herself to do it for some reason.
I remember being this age and doing dance rehearsals and performances. Kids don’t react like that unless they’re under pressure and afraid of getting in trouble. If you want to be there, even if the audience is overwhelming, you don’t cry on stage and perform through the tears. She’s like two. The “group project” joke is funny, but she’s not actually old enough to understand that. This video is sad :(
Thank you! I was thinking the same thing. To be honest, I had to stop the video for a bit because it felt morbid. There’s a child crying, and then you just hear a bunch of laughter in the background. Imagine being scared and all you get in response is laughter? No comfort at all. I’m not trying to say this is abuse or anything- it just is sad that a child is crying and yet is the only one even completely the choreo. I wonder if she already has pressure placed on her to succeed and/or if she has anxiety surrounding large crowds. Some other comments were saying she is professional and has a “great work ethic” for dancing through her crying. What kind of future are we creating if we think it’s encouraged for kids to continue something that causes them distress? It’s so toxic. There’s a difference in pushing through obstacles and overcoming hardships versus continuing with something that causes mental and physical distress. This video is so sad
I know what you mean. My mom signed me up for a stupid musical when I was kid and my music teacher wouldn't let me quit because I was the only child who had a gorgeous voice. That and gave me 2 solos. It was terrible.😑
I can say I have A good level of intelligence. But it's because I put so much effort and hard work onto everything I do in school. It's mostly about the effort. Not the intelligence. And my teammates put so little effort into it ugh..
She's just overwhelmed by feelings and that's how she's expressing it. You can tell she's not truly deeply upset - she snaps out of it every time she spins and looks away from the audience for a second lol.
I was thinking the same! The level of overwhelm is what hit her in the moment - but she was able to carry on because you let the overwhelm emotion out. I think I used to work that way - still would, but now - cannot allow the emotion side out... adulting hey? Now we hold that side in, and break at home when alone!
Apparently when I was 2 years old I had to learn a poem, my mom forced me to memorize it word by word I spent a lot of time crying And when the day came, I was the only one that remembered the poem But she didn't feel proud, she felt regret for putting me through that at such a young age I hope that child is fine
@@candylide I enjoyed your experience and I agree too much pressure is put on all of us and every age. Plus re the above comment life shouldn’t just be about surviving.
Can we talk about how difficult that first dance routine is for literal toddler to remember?? This little girl is a legend. Edit: Alright, alright, I get it, she’s probably looking at a teacher… Congrats, you’re only the fiftieth person to comment that! x) /lh
IKR! I'd take a zero if I knew I didn't have to do report in front of the class. I always wondered how did the other kids did it.. I just couldn't. I was extremely shy. After high school I ran into a classmate & he said I was stuck up.. I told him no I was just too scared to talk to anyone. But after working as a cashier (started @ 19) I began coming out of my 🐚 shell b/c I *had* to say _hello_ to everyone which made me realize it wasn't so difficult afterall.
@olivia o. of course this doesn’t apply to everyone, but I am an introvert and I find that shyness is a symptom of introversion. When I said ‘all’ I didn’t mean it in the literal sense; it was more of a hyperbolic statement. I personally don’t appear like this on the outside giving a public presentation, but this is how I feel on the inside because I don’t like having people’s attention on me for prolonged periods of time, and I’m sure many introverts can relate to that.
this was me in middle school... we had this dance that we were supposed to memorize this dance and when it came time to dance, midway into the performance I looked around and realized I was the only one actually continuing the dance, then I stopped out of embarrassment and confusion
So many options. Needs a nap. Maybe hungry and didn't eat beforehand. Maybe she doesn't like strangers. Or is scared bc there's a ton of loud strangers looking at her.

She _hates_ it but she's being obedient. That's what I see. She is angry and sad and had no idea this was going to be the end result of so much practice: _people staring and laughing,_ while mom's in the audience, doing the "moves" with her! It's sad and sweet. You just never know how a child will react! She's adorable. They all are. Thank you for posting!
This...right here. I feel so bad for her, but at the same time I'm proud of her for sticking to it, even if she was crying while doing it. When I was a child, I was very much the outgoing one, but now...there are days when she is so relatable that it hurts.
I understand she's the only 1 doing the dance but I don't think she's 'angry' she just seems startled by all of the people & the loud music which is why she's crying
@@ibtsamjadoh9988 Have you ever been _forced_ to do a thing you didn't want to do? No one likes to be _forced._ She also believes the people are _laughing_ at her. Do _you_ like to be laughed at while you're crying and frightened? _Neither does she._
@@runningamok how do you know what a toddler is thinking she was probably just startled my the large amount of people or possibly got nervous I don’t know and you don’t either so you cant assume anything
I've never seen such a committed toddler. How did she manage to bawl her eyes out (which meant she was totally stressed out), yet not leave the stage and remember the entire dance routine? Quite remarkable for a child that age.
"How did she manage to bawl her eyes out..." She probably practiced bawling her eyes out while doing the dance perfectly dozens of time for awful parents.
What is scary is reading all of these comments from people who clearly have never had kids in preschool, yet are making wildly inappropriate comments on the parents, teachers, and how the kids are being "abused". Wow! You'll be in for a shock if you ever do have kids and put them in preschool or dance classes with year end recitals, etc. (Don't you recall being in one??? No? Maybe it wasn't so traumatic afterall!)
I think it’s sad. I don’t know why people admire it. People become ill by pushing toooo much through their emotions to finish something. She’s a toddler and this is not exactly the foundation I’d want to grow my child on. She’s cute, ya, but she’ll grow up to be an adult. There’s many more years after this one. A reassuring hug would have sufficed as she cried throughout the whole thing.
I love how blissfully unaware and distracter the other kids are and she's just there carrying the whole show on her back while having a baby mental breakdown😭
Despite her tears, remaining on stage shows how brave she really was. Usually kids that age would just refuse to dance and would've hung on tightly to their parents or teacher since it seemed she was afraid to begin with. And yet, she persevered through the tears. Kudos to lil mama! She's going places.
@@MilkyWhite1 Omg get a grip. What a bizarre place to go. This was likely her first dance recital and she was doing what any typical kid that age might do when suddenly confronted with an audience. And her parents care enough to put their little girl in extra-curricular activities like dance classes. Something millions of people do every day....for fun. Should her parents just sit her in front of a tv or computer? How did that work out for you? Is that why you're so negative?
@@santrikea3235 No I think if I saw my child crying on stage I'd take them down especially that young it's obvious she is terrified. Either your parents did that to you or you do it to your kids and force them to do horrific dancing at probably 2-3 years old, that's the only way I can believe you think this is okay.
@@santrikea3235 I doubt that 2 year old signed herself up for dance classes because she thought it was fun they clearly hate it and the parents are forcing them, that's called bad parenting, I would never put my young child through that.
What an emotional performance! Not only did we get a dance routine, but we also got a dramatic segment throughout the entire performance! Brilliant!!! 🤣🥰😂
Children are people first, not performers. No small child should be forced to be subjected to this trauma for the entertainment of adults. The pressure of performing in those countries lead children to unalive themselves as adults or at best lead an unfulfilled life. My heart goes out to these babies.
That baby represents me going through everyday life. 😩 Seriously though, bless her sweet heart to keep dancing even though she was probably terrified. I hope she got a big hug and lots of kisses after that. She deserves the world! 💜
She is probably an introvert, they find all those things hard. She did it though bless her. I couldn't watch my child up there crying though. I would have taken her off
This reminds of my daughter when she was about that age. She was doing a dance routine using pompoms, but all the streamers on her pompom started to fall off, and she kept dancing, but she was getting more and more upset, as most of her pompom ended up in a pile on the floor. Finally she ran off the stage. It was so cute but so heartbreaking at the same time. This happened a long time ago, around 1989
Oh no baby. You are never going to be a victim...you are going to be a victory ever...tears pressure stress strain trials troubles can not stop you win over the whole world....more of you girl children required to change this world.
@@8698gil I’m sure your intentions were good, as were the intentions of all these parents who treat their children like performing monkeys. It’s even sad when we make the monkeys do it. Perhaps some monkeys enjoy performing, as do a small number of these children if they happen to have extroverted personalities. I suspect most children, completely dependent on parents, are only doing it because of coercion. I’m glad that now 33 years later society seems to be more aware of the negative effects
I want to live my life with the levity of the girl who smiles and does nothing, but I'm the girl who cries and does everything while everyone thanks me.
I don't like how everyone is laughing but this little girl is having a breakdown trying to do all that she's asked and it's so much for her. I want to pick her up comfort her. It's a lot simulation for most of us.
I can relate to her. Haha. This is what I feel like most of the time: waking up early, going to work, thinking about all the bills I need to pay. Meanwhile, my mind is wanting to go back to sleep.
Bro this is literally me at school everyday (just change paying the bills with studying/doing hw). Now I just gotta do it all my life till I retire? Tf 💀
and meanwhile your folks expects you keep calm and chill. I gotta learn, work, excel, pay bills, save some, stay healthy, socialize, there's a lot on my tiny shoulders.

She's so cute. I hope she felt better after. She did so well ;__; im so proud of her for remembering the entire dances. she persevered through her fears and that's truly admirable. even adults struggle through that.
I’m so conflicted. I was smiling and my heart was breaking all at the same time. I never considered myself a “helicopter mom,” but I think someone would have needed to hold me down if my child was performing and having a meltdown. She’s adorable and did an excellent job under pressure.
Yes, I would fly onto that stage and grab my baby girl and tell her "good job honey!" Then take her out for a treat to celebrate her wonderful performance! 🌹
Kids should be allowed to be sad. They aren't broken when they have feelings that make you uncomfortable. You don't need to "fix" them for feeling perfectly reasonable feelings.
@@jeannedarc5351 no but you can comfort them. As a mother it's not uncomfortable when my kid is sad because I don't want her to have feelings, it's uncomfortable because I have that natural instinct to want her to always be happy and never have to feel sad a moment in her life. Obviously that's not realistic and there will be times when she's sad and I will be able to do nothing about it but that damn sure isn't going to stop me from trying because I'm her mom and I love her more than anything in this world. I wish I had a parent like that when I was growing up. I was sad way more than I needed to be and also scared and angry and hurt.
When it zoomed out and revealed there are more babies on the other side, double the cuteness! That kid will be a good dancer someday. They are all so adorable. 🤣❤
@@verenakelly1789 stfu a lil moment like that won’t scar her life.she will probably won’t even remember it and will adore n laugh when she will see this video when she grow up
Actually, it is quite possible to teach a toddler a short dance routine. Normally at least one teacher would be in their sight on or near the stage or in the wings, doing the routine with them but not always. Often there is the one stand out who just owns the stage! (Although it's not usually the one who is crying ... And there's not always one crying, either. 😊)
@@Bilal_is_joking wtf? Shes a child. Children’s brains don’t have a same physical processes to regulate emotion, especially not one as you as her’s. She’s in fact doing a great job carrying through what she needs to do even though its stressing her out.
@@rowanphillips3497 I mean could could have been laughing and enjoying it...i don't see a need to cry, not like someone beat her or she got hurt...but anyways she's very little so you're right 👍🏻
@@Bilal_is_joking They are still babies, she probably saw her mom and wanted to go to her but was told she couldn't until she finished the performance. They're adorable.
This breaks my heart in pieces. It made me tear up. I just want to hug her and maybe stand or dance with her. I'dk why she's crying but this is heartbreaking. I'm a softee I guess .
She stood out!!! She did it all!!! Cry or not, only her knew what was going on in her mind, but it didn’t stop her from doing it all… even better than everyone else. Well done lil girl 🔥🔥🔥❤️
Aww... this baby girl deserves giant hugs and whatever she likes after being put through that... crying through her whole performance... why would the parents let this happen for so long 😢... sweet baby
Cause that's how hard rock, strong, competitive, crazy brave and smart asian kids that fit the stereotype were made 😅🤣.. you think we received comfort and kisses during or after every traumatic experience? Nahh... 🤣🤣🤣 Asians know no trauma
She's so adorable. Just reminded me of myself. So emotional when stress and anxiety kicks in. And always end up performing it the right way than others. I could see her a beautiful future ahead of her with her courage to win her challenges. God bless all these cuties! ❤️
I agree, that baby is terrified. She's continuing the routine out of fear. Her parents should have taken her off the stage instead of allowing this to go on.
I am so conflicted about this! Little mama epitomized grace under fire. She was obviously petrified with the sea of faces but like a true champion, proved that the show must go on! She was the whole show. Notice she slowly retreated to the back once she was done. Such a class act❤️
Would you have gone on stage and gotten her? Like I get if she ran off stage, don’t force her back on. But she chose to stay and work through her tears. I’m not going to go on stage and interrupt then.
