Omg as someone who has taught kids classes why tf are there always 2 girls that would rather do cartwheels than anything else?

I couldn't relate to this video more...

Hey, you leave those two princesses alone.

u/Tenshiijin Jun 30 '25

I totally let the two kids just do cartwheels all day. I was like, "fck it. They won't listen and their parents payed me already. I may as well let them have fun if they don't like the class."

In this situation, these girls have been focused on dancing, based on the casual splits at the end.

I love how the other dads first reaction is to die laughing

u/Nickhead420 Jun 30 '25

It was my first reaction, too. I'd make a horrible parent.

Dad kicked the ball a little too hard.

u/nucl3ar0ne Jul 01 '25

Yup

Was an easy tap in, but instead he had to put power on it for no reason.

u/breadcheeks_ Jun 30 '25

Stupid dad reliving his glory days for a moment.

Poor goalie. If his 2 defenders weren't off ROUNDWHEELING THEY COULD HAVE PREVENTED THIS
