There doesn't seem to be much activity on this forum, but I have something to say that's been on my mind for weeks, maybe it will start some conversation, or I might get zero response.😊 I just have to say this.
The participants this time seem to come from varied levels of economical backgrounds - which means that some of them are self trained dancers, and others can afford to go to various dance style classes. So is it fair to pitch kids who are practically professional dancers against those with potential but who have less training? Some of the kids, I feel, have been groomed to participate in this show. So who deserves more to win? Self trained who needs the prize money, or the well-off "professional" dancer? I'm not trying to undermine the hard work and effort of the children,I'm just trying to assess what is fair.
The other thing that bugs me, is what age should they allow into the show. Personally I feel 4 and 5 yr old kids need to be KIDS. Allowing such young kids to participate will encourage other parents to push their children to try to achieve similar things. I can understand that Sony is getting trps from the cuteness factor, but really, it's quite disturbing. Think about it. How many celebratory kids do you see pursuing and acting or dancing career at age 4? You can also see that the motor skills of the 4 yr old Akash aren't even fully developed, but he's on the show. Too young, I say. Sony is being exploitive of this child - trps and unfair by not allowing an older more deserving child to be in the competition.
