You be surprised how many moms blame bad behavior or mental illness. This girl in my neighborhood use to destroy neighbors property hurt their cats. I yelled at her for doing something to me and her trashy mom came with the Karen tears

Well of course she laughs when she is being bad so idk why Cassidy would behave if she’s taught it’s funny

Medication does help but there's more to it my mom put me and my sister in therapy to learn how it's ok to act and whats not ok if her mom can put her into all those things for the pageants she should take her to a child therapist or phycologist

She could just be autistic which is harder to diagnose for girls and is often mistaken for adhd. She shouldn’t have been put on meds if she had adhd. I think ngl her mom in this instance is probably the issue shes really passive.

@@sanicthehedgehog1260 I have an autistic sister I haven’t seen a single sign in her it just seems to be the outcome of awful parenting kids with autism don’t act like that

She looks bored out of her mind.

When her mom said that, I stopped watching on my TV so I could come to the comment section to make sure that she's the delusional one because I swear to God it looks like her soul left her body up there.

@@tias2705 I think being on ADHD meds really messes most kids up-- maybe some kids need sedation , which is what it really is, but Cassidy looks half-asleep, and her speech is slurred. She might be harder to handle for mom without them, but here's the real problem: mom's not willing to discipline her when she talks back, so what difference do the meds make on her behavior? Not much, imo

Poor thing. I have seen many kids loose all energy after being placed on meds. Too many kids are sedated.

Those meds for ADHD messed her up and honestly I don't think she needed them, like most kids on them. It's a way for some parents to get their kids to behave.

She looks fine lmao💀

Same here. It’s a good thing to have a sassy attitude. It’s not a good thing to be rude and disrespectful.

It’s the same when English people call a child ‘cheeky’. I hate it.

where were you when my mom would do that lmao

Someone said she passed away. Rip

@@BucckeyTemple it was her sister

She’s not necessarily a brat, she’s just being forced to participate and practice for this pageant stuff, having to walk around in caked makeup, in high heels and clothes that are inappropriate for her age, when she should be going to school and doing normal kids things

@@teehee6556 IMO means?? Ya u don't know

My sister says her son got ADHD because he screams in her face when he doesn't get his way he kicked and hit a curse a lot but when I babysit him or his big sister or brother babysit him or anyone else he acts completely different because he knows what is expected out of him and if he doesn't listen he knows he has to pay consequences for his bad behavior like a timeout or he doesn't get a treat or he cannot play outside

LMAO her fault for teaching her to hit her🥴

Her mother taught her that she tells her go ahead and hit me and puts her arm out

@@lulubelljingles9701 😳. Dear god!!

Yes every time she threatens her mom does a nervous laugh lol

@@Sunflower88685 Yeah mom needs to put on her big girl pants 😬

I completely agree!

@Cathy Berk I agree, Cathy. It’s obvious that the mother is making the problems worse by the way she acts and the way she allows her daughter to act. This will damage the child, long term, because she will not be able to function in the real world with that attitude she has. I have had many years working with children and, unfortunately, I have seen this too many times. The children suffer a great deal. It’s sad.

@@virginiabelle1823 It’s very sad.

It’s actually really sad. I remember Julie from another documentary; she had a 14 year old daughter called Jenny who used to do pageants. In the documentary she described Jenny as her best friend. The difference was Jenny loved doing pageants, Cassidy clearly hates them. Jenny died when she was 14. I think the mother is trying re-live that life with Cassidy.

@@chloesmith5142 That’s heartbreaking, to lose a child. The mother should encourage the wonderful memories of the daughter she lost. It makes sense that she and Cassidy both need healing right now. They need to grieve and remember the positive things about the daughter and sister they both lost. The mother is creating a situation where Cassidy is angry and she will resent her mom and her sister. Mom needs to get to know Cassidy better and find out what her interests are. She needs to allow Cassidy to find out who she is and encourage her with her dreams. Forcing her into these pageants will only make Cassidy resent her mom and her sister. Cassidy will feel like her sister was more important to her mother than she is. I pray that mother and daughter will work this out and form a much closer bond with each other. 🙏🏻

This is so crazy watching this is like watching my sister and her son he screams in her face when he doesn't get his way he throws things at her and hits and kicks when he doesn't get his way she says he got ADHD but when other people babysit him he doesn't do any of the things she does with her he played listen when he's told to do something and he doesn't scream kick or hit it's because he gets away with it with her and she excuses his bad behavior

The little girl brings probably the money at home. I don't know

YEA!SHE SO MEAN!🙄😒

Definitely agree but also most of these parents are out of their minds

She's using ADHD as an excuse to not discipline her

Agree. She should also have her evaluated for ADHD and get her into therapy if there is an issue there.

@Jennifer Brower Eh. It's not like she's expected to make prolonged eye contact. All she has to do is slowly move her eyes over the audience and judges. The larger issue she looked miserable on stage. She seemed to be going through the motions and just wanted it over with.

The staff and the judges have been aware of her behavior since she began competing, and her history of this type of behavior does not help her win at all, probably.

@@tias2705 I am by no means a child psychologist/psychiatrst, but looking back at my own childhood, my most miserable times was was parents, especially my mum, pushing me towards something I truly didn't ... It's seems Cassidy's mum is pushing her into pagents, which require her to be extrovert, and engaging with the judges, when in her mind, she would be far happier being in her room, reading, playing with her toys; pets; and/or everything else she prefers to do, by herself, without being forced onto a - literal - public stage ... I have this weird feeling she got into horror, so she could genuinely scream, not out of panic, or fear, but utter frustration ... which also manifests in her being snarky towards her mum, and a small paper-cut throws her into a major sulk. I doubt that is ADHD, but something more serious, that can't just be medicated away, by rather requires the healing hands of an expert Child & Adolescent Psychologist, or even Psychiatrist. And, no, physical discipline, as in spanking, won't work, per-se, either, as that _increases_ the resentment. I have clear memories of my mum using a long-handled wooden spoon on me, then, then when I was sobbing, would drag me in front of a mirror, declaring "look how ugly you look whilst crying; if you don't stop, I'll give you something to cry again ..." ... ... so back, and forth with the wooden spoon and the mirror ... which only drove the resentment further in, when what my frustration was trying to release was being hated at Junior School, by the kids, and a couple of the teachers, whom would keep me indoors during playtime/recess ... She didn't even care about the brusing when I started Comprehensive School/High School, aged 11. Her attitude was well, I was raised in a convent school, run by American Catholic nuns, in what became Guyana, after independence, in the 1950's. Being a former British colony, her mum sent her here, to London, England. But her apathetic indifference didn't result in the same behaviours as Cassidy. She does need boundaries, and she certainly needs a form of discipline; but in addition to that fence, there needs to be a gate which, when she gets upset, instead of being rude to her mum, actually puts her feeling out there, knowing she is heard, and listened to; it sounds like she needs a wall to kick, and scream at, especially if she is driven by a mixture of anxiety, fear, and utter frustration ... and she needs someone to listen to all of that ... As I said, I don't mean a total absence of discipline, and certainly not physical discipline; but _misdirected_ discipline, especially out of parental frustration, causes more harm, than good ...

She was just not happy to be here…the only princible to create Beaty competition and especially for little girl is disgusting …..Americans are very crazy sometimes ….sorry for my bad English ..

Agreed

Oh my goodness yes! I know it’s a terrible thing to say about a child, and having an interest in horror films may be completely coincidental, but I actually wonder if she’s a sociopath or psychopath? Those eyes are disturbing 😳

or she could grow a backbone and discipline her now.

@@averylewiss this is not Cassidy Dunlap lol, her family is from Arkansas.

YESS OMG HAHAAAHH

Vivian!!!!

YASS

Yes, I agree-- and it also just plain takes their childhood away--- it's disrespectful to the child to put so much pressure on them to compete, & put them on a stage- like they're a little adult, showing off how they look, not good for training them to be a good person inside-- just a big 'Let's Pretend so mama can feel like little Cassidy has some real "potential". Potential for what? Ms. Narcissist America ? Barf....

Yes! Thank you. And now put on meds. The mother is sick in the head

Cassidy's voice is annoying AF 🤣🤣🤣

Cassidy really needed help.

And in these stupid pageants, smiling is literally everything

She didn't even engage with the audience like the girl before her did.

She's very spoilt. Can't stand her

No child should be in this SICK 💩

Seems like you were raised properly

Absolutely what I was thinking

ADHD meds don't make you dull, catatonic or subdued in any way .. if you actually have it they make you feel organized, able to focus, able to motivate yourself to do every day tasks If you DONT have ADHD and you take them they make you hyped up, stimulated, etc I don't think she has it, it doesn't make you violent She's just badly behaved and not good at all that she's probably now taking meds she shouldn't

@@beththegreen yes it does when you’re on too much at a young age. I used to zone out after completing all my class work assignments and helping my classmates complete theirs. When I got home I would zone out at random moments and wouldn’t talk much let alone eat rarely. I had to take ensure because of the weight loss

They’re from California.

I wouldn't say it's the meds. I think she's bored shitless because she doesn't like pageants. Also her parents are using ADHD as a crutch and an excuse to not discipline her or properly engage with her.

But certain things kids do need to be forced to do. My parents forced me to go to school and I absolutely hated it.

@@explaintomelikeimfive1367 School benefits her for social mobility and such. What do pageants contribute beside the increase of physical insecurity within a competitive industry? Nothing. This does not benefit this child at all. It is for the sole purpose of her mother’s self-indulgence of American culture. Beauty pageants force young girls to fit into a role of womanhood when they’re not even mentally developed for it. There is no excuse of forcing a child into something they’re not interested in nor aiding development.

@@explaintomelikeimfive1367 a beauty pageant isn't school

@@explaintomelikeimfive1367 A beauty pageant is a toxic place where people judge you with stuff you were born with. And you can only really get big if you win the genetic lottery. School is a gateway to college. Not the same thing.

Your right I'm 11 and my parent raised me right my dad slaps my hand if I do something bad😂

A speech impediment is a hinderance or obstruction that effects muscles that produce certain speech sounds. Some impediments will go away with age, some can be helped with speech therapy by physically strengthening those muscles, and the rest are congenital defects that can’t be fixed. I believe she has the first.

I think its exacerbated by her meds-- her dosage is too high. I had a neighbor like that who played with my son in elementary school- if they already have a lisp or speech impediment, it definitely gets worse taking ADHD meds. He could sit still for hours, without hardly getting up. That's not normal for a healthy 7 yr. old! "Oh, but he's so hyper without his meds!" his mother protested when I mentioned how he could sit still for such looong periods, and perhaps, seemed overly dosed.

@@lindadee34 i think you may be projecting.. she didn't look like a zombie or immobilised..

​@@kelliemarieross I never said she looked liked a zombie- didn't use those words. I did say that a normal 7-year old, in the case of my neighbor, whom I was talking about, shouldn't be able to sit in pretty much one spot for hours, (playing with cars) and when you overmedicate a child and expect them to act like a little adult, they'll get this sleepy look and slur their words. Not "looking like a zombie", but also, not really alert, which is the way I thought Cassidy looked, unfortunately. I guess a lot of parents don't want their kids to be as hyper as they normally would be without the meds-- and sometimes they keep rewarding kids for bad behavior by bribing them, (sugary drinks, etc.)instead of disciplining them.

@@lindadee34 Quite ... It seemed to me that, whilst Cassidy wasn't catatonic, she certainly was 'zoned out', as she didn't appear to be entirely 'present', which may very be that awful combination of wrong medication, wrong dosages. Like many others, with chronic, acute, pain, it is not unknown for a 'specialist' to get what s/he thinks is the route cause of pain, only for the side-effects of drug-drug interaction, leaving me utterly exhausted, with no further pain relief, and having to tapier myself off of it ... And as for 'doctor shopping', in search of said doctor willingly prescribing often 'black label' meds, at Xmg/day, rather than, for the same cost of all those consultations, getting to sex a Child & Adolescent Psychologist, and/,or Psychiatrist, to get to the reason why she is so angry, and frustrated, has more to do with the mum saying what _she_ dislikes, instead of asking "is she actually OK ...?" ... ... which may well be actually Cassidy having lost all prior enthusiasm for pagents, yet her mum keeps pushing her into them, due to her - the mum - wanting to keep the prior caché of the past crown winnings going ... where Cassidy is maybe just burnt out from the total circus of the pagent circuit ...but can't tell her mum that, so that her frustrations gets vented out in rude behaviour ...

Right? What happens if something happens to their face? Devastating for them. I was pretty in my twenties through forties and I am not pleased by the aging process and I am only 54 and even look younger. What a blow it must be for women who rely on their looks.

hahahaha she fucking does 😂😂😂😂

So accurate lol this made my day

LMMMFFFAAAAOOOOOOO

She may have a hearing problem I thought

🤣🤣

Agree. What in the world is beautiful about little girls groomed and acting like adults?! This is creepy.

Can you link some of the videos pls ?

@@lpsflatpaint5933 She was 14 if I remember correctly.

Oh god? What happened?

@@jemmaj2919 medical condition she was born with. she had treatments and whatnot she had to do with the mom before competing

@@jemmaj2919 I read the older daughter had cystic fibrosis and loved being in pageants. I think mom is trying to make Cassidy be the replacement for that daughter. Cassidy doesn't really like doing pageants and she's not her late sister reincarnated. I feel terrible for the mom. Losing a child changes u for life. My daughter lost a baby, almost 4 mos old. It changed her and the rest of us. It's a parents worst nightmare. My daughter had another son 14 mos after losing her baby and that little guy can do no wrong. Fortunately, he's a good kid, so far. He's 13 yrs old now.

To be fair, she's not actually sassy. Just entitled and disrespectful. But meds won't fix that either.

@@tias2705 the mom said she has been less 'sassy' since going on meds, that's why I used that terminology. True and being sassy isn't even bad, it is good for kids to have a firery spirit and will. The meds will ruin her personality and the mothers parenting will continue to teach her that entitlement, so sad

@Katelyn Kingston Ah, I must have missed when she said she was already on meds! I heard her say she has undiagnosed ADHD so I wonder how she got her prescribed medication without an actual diagnosis. My nephew has severe issues with his ADHD and it took a lot to get him on meds despite diagnosis and compounding ODD issues.

But these are "beauty is everything" or they wouldn't dress them like small, trampy adults. It's disgusting. Abhorrent.

@@Hey___you there are pageants where they don’t allow the kids to be dressed like that

the thing with sport or music or academics is if you don't win then you can work on improving your weaknesses. If you lose at a beauty pageant then you work at being prettier. Plus these pageants are run to make large profits for the organisers- unlike community sport or a school music program. So the parents spend their savings and even go into debt to pay for them. Therefore, a lot of the kids are under a huge amount of pressure to win the money back. Not winning a supreme title is seen as losing.

@@lockout5731 every moment I was literally cringing 😬

I agree 💯

I agree she’s so disrespectful. Telling her mom before I hit you just wow.

Girl me too, as a mum I can’t stand kids like her. She’s not sassy as the mum said, she a spoilt brat that’s been allowed to get away with anything she wants

@@jenniferbrower yeah I take adderall for chronic fatigue syndrome

As a person with combo ADHD I was never like this as a kid and I was late diagnosed . This is just bad parenting honestly good luck to the mom later in life

whether she has ADHD or not, the mother is relishing in the diagnosis. If her kid behaves badly then she just blames the ADHD and she is exonerated from all responsibility. Some parents use these diagnoses to say "see, I'm not a bad parent, it was all the illness!". Also, other than the physical and financial tasks the mother performs, the pills will replace her fully as a parent in teaching and regulating the child- which is just an impossible thing to happen.

This is what I thought too

Wait who died?

@@YoMamaIsSweet This pageant mom’s first daughter.

yes I remember it, the first daughter did pass away from a lung disease

It's all for the MOTHERS

she’s gorgeous, she has such a cute smile and the perfect hair

For those who hasnt seen the previous time they were on the show, cassidy told "i dont like being on stage" and "i dont like doing this" to the camera. Her unhinged mother is forcing, pressuring and manipulating her against her will. That is the source of her anger. That woman needs to be taken and locked up in a psychiatric hospital. That toothy grin and nervous laughs are a facade in which she hides her vile and toxic traits. Laughing and niceness is a mask. There is alot of anger, aggression, envy, obsession, pure lunacy boiling beneath her laughs. Truly terrifying woman.

That’s assuming she even cares about being there
