t’s one thing to have your parents sitting in the audience at a high school talent show. It’s another to have them in the audience when you are competing in an international sporting event. United States Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman competed in the team qualifiers today, and the cameras at NBC caught the reactions of Raisman’s parents as she competed. And needless to say, it was a hilarious moment. -snip-

4. Tweaker Mom? Her body language was similar to a tweaker.

A meth addict, for those who aren't familiar with the term, is also called a tweaker.

They can't sit still.

3. It looked as though they knew they were on camera.

5. All three people in the room when we saw that thought it was scummy of NBC to show it.

They can't fucking show 9/10 of the events that are happening yet they have time for this drivel.

6. Wrestler's parents do that too.

You could always tell whose kid was on the mat by certain spectator's body language. People who were still and relaxed were suddenly extremely animated until the match was over and would go back to being relaxed.

7. Proud parents who really support their daughters dreams.

I love it!

8. The little girl in the bottom left corner looks at them like "WHAT is your PROBLEM?"

Talk about a helicopter mom. Geeze, the poor kid can't even compete in the Olympics without getting coached from the stands!
