I'm watching. Don't know why I do though. I've spent the last ten mins shouting at the screen!
Lily intrigues me, imagine being 11 with daddy wrapped around your finger. It made no mention of her mum though just her dads partner?

The dance girl doesn't keen over keen does she (and not a particularly natural dancer IMO)

Once into the higher levels of dance, I think she is more likely to have her confidence crushed than boosted like her mum says

[charliedontsurf]

I am agog at dance girls Mum! Poor girl!

[littleblackdress26]

A daily present? ? Wtf !! I feel like there's got to be a deeper reason for this though.

[voodoolooloo]

Oh lord 4 year old Sharon and her daily presents (and £400 of birthday presents).
What a set of twats!

[fatowl]

I'm loving the rebellious 16 year old who won't buy into her mum's sweet 16 party

[timemaychangeme]

Just horrible to watch. So sad for little dance girl. She will NEVER be good enough for her mum. I agree she isn't a natural and to push her and push her to compete will just take her confidence away. Coming last or near the bottom time after time is soul destroying.

And the others so far are just showered with material stuff they don't need, probably don't even want and are going to equate with love with clothes/toys etc. So sad.

[timemaychangeme]

fatowl, she's not getting a choice :( Mum wants a party so Samatha will have to have one. Arggggghhhh

[Sparklingbrook]

I cannot find the words to express how awful it all is.

[fatowl]

why on earth is she buying a car for a 16 year old?

[228agreenend]

Recording it to watch later (along with programme about baby modelling agency)-love these types,of programmes.

[Sparklingbrook]

I watched another programme earlier this evening which was a bit like this but about children modelling?

That dancing looks like running around a gym flinging yourself about.

[SpookyRachel]

Samantha is Saffy, isn't she? Loving her.

[fatowl]

OMG thank god for dad seeing sense.

[voodoolooloo]

Once again, what a set of twats. The only one with any class is the lovely 16 year old.

[charliedontsurf]

"If you can't use your wallet...then don't speak to me!"

I sort of wish I could be her just for a day, her life is bonkers.

[Sparklingbrook]

The daily present thing is going well....

[timemaychangeme]

sparkling it's going spiffingly for sure. Both kids calm, happy and feeling the love :(

[Sparklingbrook]

This is quite difficult to watch isn't it? I wonder if the TV company asked on MN in Media Requests for people to go on the show?

[charliedontsurf]

I don't get the present thing?!

Imagine watching that back when you're an adult and seeing yourself having a paddy because mum didn't get you 2 daily presents. Eek.

[voodoolooloo]

The daily present woman is deluded. What on earth will Sharon be like in an other couple of years?!
Poor kids don't have five mins to appreciate one present before another is shoved under their ungrateful noses.

[fatowl]

Those two little girls are just completely overwhelmed :-(

[voodoolooloo]

I've just told DH 'if he can't see his wallet then not to talk to me'. DH told me to fuck off. I'd love what's her face's husband to say the same to her!
Glad to see he had balls and put his foot down!

[Sparklingbrook]

I have seen this Wren (?) woman before but not sure where/when.
