Would you encourage?
your 11 year old daughter to aspire to become another Jordan/Katie Price glamour model . By buying her fake salon tanning sessions and expensive makeup .And then take her to America to enter her in the bizarre pageant Little Miss America?
As parents what are your views of this so called beauty contest . Where children don makeup and are encouraged to act like mini adults and Barbie dolls .
I agree Michael . There is something weird about watching little girls strutting around with makeup and short skirts on .
Haz I understand what your point is . But what these mothers are doing is beyond parties etc .
It was an article on Richard and Judy today . The girl in question is 11 and when asked about the contest she came across very immature . She talked about being a fairy princess in the pageant . Her face looked uncomfortable when watching the others parade around in a preview video.
I think its a case of fame hungry parents, looking for an easly living off their kids.
it is a bit warped, I say leave kids alone, and let them have a childhood, there is too much crap on tv, and I think this is the main source for much of kids attidudes to life. Kids want to be all grown up way before their time, and they don’t know what they’re missing.
I look at some of the young people that I have worked with over the years, and they think they are really mature, the little they know oozes out in their attitude to life.
I feel myself heading towards a rant, so i’m gonna stop here.
