I saw on the news where a mother was angry at a cheer that her 6 year old had to do on her Michigan cheerleading team. The words were " My back aches, my skirts to tight, my booty shakes from left to right". The mother said this is nothing that a 6 year old on any little girl should be saying so she pulled the little girl off the team. Do you agree that a little girl shouldnt be saying these things? If you were in this situation what would you do? I probably would have pulled her off to or at least not let her do that cheer and demand some change! What do you think??

I saw an interview with the mother on Good Morning America. She didn't pull her daughter off of the cheerleading team, the little girl was suspended from the team for a year because her mother protested the cheer. I don't think that those words are appropriate for a 6 year old child but I do think that the school should have worked with her on this issue. The poor little girl's heart was broken but her parents said that they would not allow her to return to the squad because they saw no reason for the suspension.

Those words are very inappropriate for a six year old to be saying. I have heard of more shocking stories that are relevant to the one you mentioned. A girl at the age of 11 lost her virginity because all her other friends had lost it at the age of 10 and she fell into peer pressure. Kids these days are doing more things that are inappropriate. Teachers and Parents have to be responsible with this kind of behavior. Anyways I would have done the same, I would have just pulled the 6 year old off. I would definitely not be tolerable of that behavior.
