6 Year Old Cheerleader Kicked Off Team over Sexual Chant (Watch)!

By AAyles on September 15th, 2010

Is this what the world is coming to?

A 6-year-old girl was kicked out of the cheerleading league after her mom (Jennifer Tesch) refused to let her sing a cheer that she believed had sexual references.

The lyrics of the chant are:

“Our backs ache, our skirts are too tight, we shake our booties from left to right…”

The mom of the 6-year-old girl who was removed from the team believed that the chant was too sexual for such a young group of girls.

Opinions as to whether or not the choice to remove the little girl from the league was the right one are mixed so we want to know what you think.

Are the lyrics above too risqué for a 6-year-old?

I actually remember this chant from when I was a kid. They definitely spiced up the lyrics. Here’s how I remember it going:

“Our backs ache, our belts are too tight, we shake our hips from left to right…”

I guess Don Henley was right: This is the end of the innocence.

    As a teen publisher of Yaldah Magazine for girls, I applaud these parents for upholding their values. We need to take a stand against the sexualization of young girls. Let’s allow girls to be children and celebrate their inner beauty, strength, and dreams.

  • Have we lost our minds

    These parents are absolutely correct. Protect your kids!! The Team and those associated have no values and continue to contribute to our kids losing their values. I applaud you !!!
    Let them be mad. Now sue their asses, you have a case.
    Think what would happen if she stood up in class and talked about shaking her booty. The same folks would have you in teacher conferences and talking with specialist because this 6 yr old has a problem.

    The youth squad my daughter is on has been doing that cheer for years, slightly different lyrics. The coaches yell “Hey cheerleaders how do you feel?’ the girls respond with “My bach is achy, my skirts too tight, my body shakes from left to right. I feel good, Oh I feel so good” Only risque if you interpret it that way. Their backs hurt from cheering for hours, not to mention the more complicated mounts they do, the uniforms are form fitting–as are the football uniforms, and they do move left to right alot. Seems to me that this child’s parents are the typical “Those parents” who have to have something to complain about. Get at least one every year in our league.

    Not only is it too racy for a group of little girls–it’s moronic and makes no sense. Are you kidding me? What’s next, America? Wake up! We are going down the tubes and this is a perfect example of just how stupid we’ve become. The coach is obviously an idiot, and anyone who voted the little girl off the squad is a disgrace–especially if this was a school group. Shame on you people! And btw, the little girl is better off anyway.
