| rowspan="2" |''Balancing homework and Hollywood -- the real life of dance parents''
|About the efforts, secrifices and risks of a successful dance career. Risks and benefits of using social medias. Sideeffects for kids and families in show business.
|An really excellent article from Sean Hurd. Well, Kaycee expierenced clearly not a "Miceal Jackson Childhodd Trauma", especially considering the burdens and pressure to be a professional since she was 11 years old. But the article described the dark side of it. But most impressive, despite her success, she gets managed having a lot of fun, lives her life and manages the typical teenage pubertal problems and school as well.

| colspan="3" |''"If the day-to-day tasks seem daunting, grooming the next wave of dance superstars is no easy undertaking either, nor is it cheap. Since committing full-time to their children's careers, the parents unanimously said that between travel, hotels, classes and studio time, a family could expect to spend anywhere between $30,000 and $36,000 per year on dance-related expenses.''
''"Shows like 'Dance Moms' gives parents a bad rap in the eye of people who are not involved in the industry," said Kaycee's mother, Laura Rice, who formerly owned Studio 13 in Simi Valley, California, where her daughter used to practice.''
''The lives of Aidan, Kaycee and Taylor -- plus those of their respective families -- were completely altered once their performances exploded in the social media sphere, prompting a huge role-of-dice commitment. And as you might have guessed, there is no guided path for success in this game -- it's all essentially trial by error for the somewhat new industry. "We just started getting our feet wet," said Brad Rice, Kaycee's dad. "There was a lot of good, and some negative that came out of it. It was getting through that gray area and learning about things. We just wanted to protect her."''
''Actually, the life of a dance parent could easily be summed up in a single word: sacrifice. The levels of sacrifice among families range from the simple but time-consuming act of shuttling kids to daily classes or castings to more extreme levels like prioritizing your child's career over your own and quitting your job.''
''Laura said that private lessons for Kaycee could run as high as $200 per hour, and commissioning a piece of choreography for a competition or project could run a bill ranging from $500 to $1,500.''
''"Parents think that it's easy because they see successful kids shooting up to the top," Laura Rice said. "What they don't realize is how many hours, the time, the dedication, the expense and everything else. Not all kids want to do this, and not all kids can handle it either. You need to have a lot of thick skin as a parent and as a child."''
''"When people say 'you have to be all in,'" Teresa said, "we are all in."''
