I completely agree, I’ve watched Toddles and Tiaras sometimes and am repulsed by the way these parents treat their children. It seems that they never grew up and out of dolls and treat their kids as real life dolls and use them for money. I’ve seen fathers tell their 3 year old daughters that they have bushy eyebrows and that they need to shake their butts better.
I thought parents were supposed to protect their children from becoming sluts not pushing them into it.
Precisely. As mean as this may sound I can totally imagine some of these kids growing up to be teen moms and being on the show. This is pretty horrid.
The kids look much better without the makeup and the fake nails!
You are riatarded for sure!Your opinion is just that your opinion! You need to look at yourself and leave these kids and their moms alone! I am sure there is PLENTY of room for improvements in YOUR life!
yay! I have a hater 🙂 Thank you for commenting! Do come back again!
Because the mothers failed in their dreams and are now living through their children.
You are absolutely right but that’s not fair now is it? 😦
No it isn’t fair. But fair wasn’t your original question. In fact this is so far from fair as to be closer to the side of child abuse, but perhaps only those of us with an intellect greater than a bag of hair are able to see it. The real problem is that shows such as Toddlers in Tiaras has such a following. You have to wonder who is turning this show on every week. It is disturbing.
One of the contestants’ younger brother said that going for a pageant is like picking rubbish out of a garbage can!
I totally agree with you about it being very disturbing!
Sorry, I have no explanation for such…lunacy.
…and then these parents wonder why their little girls turn into bimbos!
It really puts these little girls in harm’s way. They are dressed like a pedophile’s dream. Maybe the parents should have to attend classes on some kind.
I completely agree with you!
Absolutely agreed.
Thank you so much for subscribing and liking it Nelle 🙂
I agree! It’s a ridiculous competition that sends the wrong message to young girls!
The girls don’t even look like they are toddlers!
I don’t get it, but I’m guessing it’s the same mentality that any parent who pressures their child to compete has.
Oh don’t even get me started on that one! 😉
Because it’s not about them at all, it’s really all about me. Me, me, me, ME!
All under the guise of being for them, of course…
True!
Would you consider sending your kids for a pageant? Just curious!
We want kids to be competitive but in spelling bee, math and jeopardy. This is really pushing the envelope. We saw a much debated video that went viral on youtube couple of years back when bunch of eight years were shaking on Beyonce tune. There’s a reason we have a rating system for movies & games, similarly there needs to be minimum age limit for certain competitions.
Ir’s sad isn’t it? You should watch an episode of Toddlers and Tiaras. It will make you want to throw up!
That’s sad…have you seen the movie, Little Miss Sunshine? It’s one of my favorites and deals with this sort of thing. Other feel good movies….per your request, The Shawshank Redemption, Freedom Writers, The Notebook (my daughter loves this one). Happy New Year!
Hey Patrice! Yes i have seen that movie and the girl is just so adorable!
Thank you for the recommendations! Happy New Year to you too 🙂
i love poop
hahaha ok that made me laugh! That was so random!
Sad, when parents (primarily moms, it seems to me) have to live vicariously through their children. Not healthy for parent or child. Can’t understand why these are supported for kids at these young ages. ~ Sheila
Precisely! I just think this is like stealing their innocence. Sure, some of them look adorable but I think going to extremes is not right! Furthermore, the same people complain when their kids turn into pretentious little ‘divas’!
It`s a society problem.
You don´t see that kind off sick pacing off children in Denmark where i´m from, either in sweeden, Norway, Finland.
As long as it acceptable in the society to pace kids like you do in USA you will have that kind off child abusing activities
I completely agree with you! thank you for dropping by my blog 🙂
wonder what they’ll become once they get older… Bimbos? cos the one in the pic looks like a potential one~~
Have you seen the show teen moms? Something along those lines I suppose? -_-
haha yea watched it, high chances!
No i don’t think they’ll be on teen mom there mothers will have already have been put on birth control by then.
haha good point :p
When my eldest daughter was little, a neighbor (who also was my boss) suggested I put her in a beauty pagent. His daughter had been in several. I decided I wanted her to be appreciated for her brains and talent, so I declined. She was in gymnastics which I think helped her develop athletically and socially. (That can get dicey, too, if you plan to mortgage the house so your child might someday be in the Olympics. We didn’t go that route because then her interests shifted to being in school plays and other school activities.) Thanks for stopping by my blog.
That is so cool! So does she act now? aww I am going back to follow you 😀
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry at this? Isn’t it crazy? It’s like the maternal instinct is completely missing? Sadly, the trauma of the pageants is going to be only a small part of their problems when they get older. I imagine that these kids are from pretty dysfunctional families where the parents get their needs met through their kids. Ugh!!!!
