Child models. Are they ok?


Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever seen a series called 'Toddlers and Tiaras' on one of the Sky channels? It's about parents who enter their kids on the beauty pageant circuit in America. I found it quite distubing.

 

I watchd i once.

It was a while ago and for some reason that little girl (jonbenet ramsey??) had been on the news and i thought id watch it as thats the sort of thing she did (and its probably what cost her her life).

I go about 5 minutes into it then switched over.

All i could think was, those poor kids:(

Your probably right.

 

Money likely does play a part but I'd bet my house it has more to do with

ugly failed parents trying to personify themselves through their children.

 

Personally I find it quite nauseating.

Your not alone there. Imagine the damage they are doing to these kids in the long term :(

Agreed. Did you ever see that documentry, think it was called Sasha the 11 year old beauty queen. Her mother was living her life through her daughter (she said she wasn't but she obviously was!).

The mum was sooooo annoying, you'd have slapped her if only you could reach through the TV.

The poor girl at 11 had her hair bleached, false nails, face full of make-up etc. Nasty

I remember that, i didnt watch it but i remember it being on tv.

After a quick Google i found it, i picked a ransom episode and watched as far as 5 minutes.

Skip to 4.50 to see what made me stop watching.

Its sick!
