Subject: About SnS- Teia Mendez

Ok Ladies, I'm not gonna go tit for tat with any of you. We don't do every pageant of Sugar-N-Spice if you must know. No my daughter doesn't always win the big supreme titles. When she does win, its not expected or traded as you are suggesting. I talk to TS, but believe it or not she was the first person who ever talked to us at a pageant. As most know, my children are part hispanic and we haven't exactly been welcomed into the pageant community. We only go to pageants ever so often, because this isn't the focus of our lives and we just simply don't have the money to always go. I am honestly not going to bash anyone, because I am one who will stand up and say what I have to say to your face. I am very proud of my children, both Serena and Tyler because they do the best they can on stage. If they win a supreme, that's great but if they don't that's great too. I am a proud momma no matter what. It's fine if you want to talk about me, but leave my kids out of it. Noone should bring a child's name to a board like to purposely try and hurt them. That is just wrong, because they can't defend themselves. I look at these boards ever so often and I see a baby on here being bashed, only because they beat out the older girls for Elite or Overalls. Of course I understand it hurts, but if you watch the little ones on the stage, then you know if they deserve it or not. I will be the first to admit that I don't always agree with the winners, but that's my opinion and I'm a mom. I would not even judge a pageant as long as my kids are in pageants, because I don't want to add fuel to the fire. I have been asked a couple of times and turned it down, because for me personally it is coi. I don't want to argue or fight with anyone over who's child is more beautiful or more talented or even over who has the best clothes. I just wish people would stop and think before they type. This is just my opinion and I know someone will have something to say, but its fine. As long as you are talking about me, then you aren't bashing a child. Have a great day and good luck at your pageants this weekend.

[> Well said! Your dd is absolutely gorgeous! I personally do not like s&s pageants, but I would not talk about you for going. That is your preference. I like what you had to say about pageants not being your life. It is sad to think about all the children who do not know anything else but pageants. We have been talked about several times and I just let it roll. We do pageants on occasion for fun and to do something together as a family. I have seen you at a couple of pageants and I notice that your husband is always there. I like to see that. Anyway, just thought I would add a positive post before all the bashers start. -- Anonymous, 14:39:29 04/20/06 Thu [1]

[> Only saying that S&S would be hurting without your business. I liked your post. It seems like you've got a good head on your shoulders when it comes to pageants. There is no reason your children shouldn't be welcomed in our pageant community. They are both beautiful and deserving of their titles. -- Anonymous, 14:41:34 04/20/06 Thu [1]
