because kids that young cant understand criticisms. wht they need is full positive support. they dont know when ppl say negative things it is to help them.

for example look at u i am assuming u r an adult i dont like ur views, i told u and u got frustrated and argued with me. which was exactly the point i was trying to prove and i was hoping soon u would say it was to help her.

it doesn’t really help kids when ppl criticize them. it really hurts their feeling lowers their self esteem and seriously discourages them frm trying anything new.

I know ppl have said well that’s real life and it helps them get used to life etc. but I am going to have to disagree you cant hurt other people feeling, lower their confidence. if u want to say something isn’t good enough especially to a kid (and I understand it just a video in sajha u r not directly saying it to her but) then make sure u can help that person improve it.

For ex. If I were to meet some kid who was just starting to dance I would say u did gr8 then maybe I would say next time I can help u in some of ur choreography or something. How is that helping someone if u just say “I didn't find it that good” give them suggesting on how to improve don’t tell them they are not good enough

all i am saying is in real life u meet a 6-7 yr old kid please dont say anything if u dont have something positive to say. Don’t hurt their feeling. Especially kids growing up in a foreign country and trying to be bi-culture b/c a culture is only interesting if it has fun aspect associated with it and I think dancing is agr8 way to learn abt your heritage.  

I am sorry I don’t really take things said online very seriously but that kid is so cute and she looks like she is really trying hard.

Anyways peace!!
