Don’t ask me why this video made me think about this, but think back to when we were still hunter-gatherers or to even the nomadic tribes from the last 5-6,000 years. Kids were protected, but they were required to be productive members of the tribe/clan. Watch the younger babies, keep the sheep, etc, etc. In our day, we don’t seem to think that kids can keep their rooms picked up or do their own laundry.

Off your lawn. Got it.

I’m calling it: Rick winz da’ thread (if you will)!

So as interesting it is to hear about someones knowledge how children where raised back during the great migrations… its just nonsense to fit current opinion or at best speculation

Ontopic: those kids are great dancers.

Dance, as it is with music, is hybridizing, borrowing from different styles. This is always in a state of morph, of flux, of combine-and-recreate.

Perhaps it’s a good thing that they CAN dance like this, without it having to be associated with nightclubs, drug and alcohol abuse etc?

It might even be possible(though admittedly chances are slim), that they will grow in their love for what they are doing… and when they realize there is another darker culture surrounding dancing a certain way, or listening to particular types of music, that they will be able to separate themselves from it.

Like I said, just a thought.

I find it sort of uncomfy to watch an 8-year-old grinding and grabbing his junk.

I believe that he’s hiking up his pants to keep his heel from catching.

Seen many kids rock before, and they’re up in that upper level with ‘it’. Loves it.
