Some of the cheerleaders have quite sad backstories which are talked about alongside the cheer practise stuff, one's mum died, one had a neglectful dad, one girl has some nudes leaked on twitter and at one point one of the coaches talks about how he attempted suicide. It's not glorified in anyway though.Is this suitable for my 12 year old? She’s a cheerleader so would love it but puts me off that it’s a 15.
Thank you that’s really helpful, I’ll watch it with herSome of the cheerleaders have quite sad backstories which are talked about alongside the cheer practise stuff, one's mum died, one had a neglectful dad, one girl has some nudes leaked on twitter and at one point one of the coaches talks about how he attempted suicide.

The only other thing is the language, mainly fuck and bitch.
I think it depends on how mature your 12 year old is and how you feel about those topics and the swearing. Maybe watch it together and then you can talk her through any of the more sensitive topics.
I found her Dad worse, the way he spoke to all the girls in his family was awful. When she was trying to do school work and they were going on at her about making a YouTube Ad video and posting pictures in Instagram to advertise the sisters bikini business which they only started to exploit Gabi in the first place.Gabi's parents are something else... I dont know if anyone on here watched "Cheerleaders" on youtube but it documented a lot of Gabi's earlier days in Cheer. Her Mother has definitely gotten worse. She seemed a little kooky in the youtube series but now she has transformed into a 100% momager that just seems to see her daughter (who seems genuinely talented, sweet and hardworking) as a complete cash cow.
I know Gabi has responded to all of the negative tweets etc. saying her family are super supportive but that does not come across at all...
I think a fair few of them have moved over to cheer at Texas Tech. Austin and Sherbs definitely have and reading into an insta comment I think Morgan is too.If anyone is interested, an update!
Morgan finished at Navarro, Jerry is back at Navarro despite going to UOL for a bit, Gabi is our making money from sponsorship and has joined another team, Lexi is out living her life maybe back at college? This was all just gleaned from their instas so it is 100%!
The dad is a total weirdo. The way he actually got excited for his daughter to post bikini photos was just weird. She’s treated like a business without any consideration for how she feels as a person.I found her Dad worse, the way he spoke to all the girls in his family was awful.

It was hard watching the pressure get to her and how it effected her cheerleading because her head was all over the place.
aw that is fab! Unrelated but honestly watching Sherbs take that fall was awful!I think a fair few of them have moved over to cheer at Texas Tech. Austin and Sherbs definitely have and reading into an insta comment I think Morgan is too.
I bloody loved this show - I really hope they make a season 2 but I’m not sure if it would be the same with different team members. I’m low key in love with Morgan!
I cannot stand Gabi Butler's family either! I find her dad so creepyHas anyone watched this?
I'm off work sick and I've just binged through it, perfect sick day TV!
I knew that cheerleading wasn't just pompoms and dancing but I didn't quite realise how intense it is. The coach is a bit insane in the way she pushes them through training even when they are pretty badly injured.
Also I cannot stand Gabi Butler's family.
