In a recently new news report Abby Lee Miller has allegedly been slammed with a law suit for assaulting a student (http://www.eonline.com/news/587563/dance-moms-abby-lee-miller-sued-for-assault-by-student-get-the-details)/). Since her reality TV show "Dance Moms" has premiered many have come accustomed to different opinion on Millers behalf. Over the years she has been either hated by many (according to her lack of love for her students) or loved by many (according to people agreeing with her stricter ways of teaching and many believing it builds character). Despite the wide variety of "love-hate" relationships for Miller, there is no doubt she has sparked up conversations of her teachings and punishments.
I'm sure most have seen "Dance Moms" at least once in their lives as it has had many consistent seasons, which leads me to question the talk and suggestions of Millers new law suit against her. From watching the countless episodes I (and I'm sure many others) have been able to tell the aggression coming not only from Miller herself, but the moms as well. Often times when one or the other doesn't get their way they tend to throw a fit, most likely to save themselves from embarrassment on national television. In return this is what causes drama, which essentially is what drives it's audience to watch the show. My question is why this charge in assault hasn't been brought up before, this is not the first time something like this has occurred has it?
In accordance with my statement earlier, a lot of times when Miller or a mom gets angry they tend to throw things out of proportion (throwing objects, using profound language, etc.). The argument presented in the article states that Miller threw a chair at Paige (one of her students) which may not be morally right in some peoples minds, but is for sure not the first time something like this has happened on the show. In conclusion (and based on other scenes made like this over and over again) I believe that this case was probably made mostly on the fact that something didn't go somebody's way. The people that participate in the show tend to be a little overdramatic about situations, but in the end always seem to come to peace with them. Everyone on the show might not always get a long, but they all know each other well enough to know that any kind of essential "abuse" or "harassment" would never be deemed intentional. In my opinion Miller's reaction may have been wrong, but her supposed "cause" was not intentional.
