Normally, I'm not one to tell people how to live their lives, but something is not right here. This just triggers my 'ick' reflex in the worst of ways.

"'But, even without make-up, she looks about 13 or 14, certainly older than her age.'
[The mother] thinks this is a good thing and brushes off questions about unwelcome male attention.
'People go on about the paedophile thing, but they've got that one wrong. Paedophiles don't want girls who look 18. If anything, it's the fresh-faced younger ones they want."
Um...mommy, listen up: It's not the pedophiles you need to worry about. It's the hoards of older boys who are going to be all over the sluttiest looking girl in school the same second she starts sprouting tits. Knocked up at 15 and washed out at 30 seems not too unlikely. Good job.

"Ask Sasha how she sees herself and she replies: 'Blonde, pretty, dumb - I don't need brains.' Her mum laughs her head off at this, proud that the child is so like her."
Eh... um... jeez...

Mummy's little Lolita: The 11-year-old girl whose beauty treatments cost £300 a month to make her look like Barbie

She wore her first set of false eyelashes at eight, and her beauty treatments cost £300 a month. A sick abuse of an 11-year-old? 'No', insists Sasha's mother, 'I just want her to be famous...'

She doesn't look older than she is. It's just money flushed down the toilet.

This isn't going to end well.
 
She's a little girl, for chrissake, not a doll to play dress-up with! That mother is fucked up (and unfortunately passing on her neurosis to her daughter.)

What has to happen in a case like this before social services gets involved and removes the child from the home?

Ah, yes, but bumps and bruises and broken bones are easy to detect. Damage like this goes undetected for years and years.

Right. Worse than that, she's using another human - a child, her child - for her own gratification. Without the other's consent, which is not possible because she's a child and can't know better. Isn't that the definition of immoral?

Happens all the time with little league dads.

You rarely hear this much hue and cry over it, though.

When put that way it sounds like incest, and is probably just as bad in some ways.
 
My own daughter is almost seven, and I recently did full makeup on her for a dance recital. She looked so beautiful, it was frightening. Hmmm...I wonder if she could be famous. :rolleyes:
 
mommy

I find that sickening.

So lets see what we are teaching this kid.

Your entire worth is tied to your looks
Beauty makes you better than other people
Intelligence is useless
Education is useless
You are at best, an object for the gratification of others
Self esteem- what the hell is that for

what a fucked up mom-

Reminds me of the groomers in one of those dog shows
(but i think the dogs are treated better)

Uh, yeah. And I know Hockey dads who are the same way. One boy left home last month, right after graduation. He won't tell his family where he is, he's so sick of his father's hockey ambitions.

I love the way this article was written! ...found what you'd expect at a U.S. beauty pageant held in a down-market-looking Texan hotel...

Same way with football dads. Read up on Todd Marinovich, former USC quarterback and washout NFL player. Dad held a very strict routine over his life, controlling what he ate, no dating, etc etc. Coming out of high school he was highly touted as a model QB, in college he struggled with now having a social life, by the NFL he was falling apart. He eventually washed out of the NFL and has since been arrested numerous times on drug charges.

At our school girls are strictly forbidden to wear any sort of makeup, period. That's except for one day a year, the Egyptian Parade. That day mothers come in and paint the sixth-grade girls up like 21 and going out. The transformation is, as you say, sometimes frightening. Fortunately the vast majority of them can hardly wait to go wash it all off again! :D

I feel dumb, but what does "down-market-looking" mean?

Cheap? Low-class?

yeah, that's about it... :rolleyes:

One thing that gets me about this-- and it's probably because of the kind of fiction I write-- is that these girls aren't getting any sort of substance to go along with their charms. Even the concubines in harems were taught skills-- weaving, chess, poetry, watercolors, for crissake-- I've seen gold jewellery that was made by a Chinese woman, and that means she had access to a forge.

The current crop of wanna-be princesses have been taught, and I blame Disney, that beauty is an ultimate ambition, and once beauty has been achieved, a girl needs nothing else.

Well, she looks older than she is, at least I think so, but I don't see where the word 'pretty' should refer to. :confused:

It's people like them who set the weirdest standard of beauty for society.
