Subject: pageants

I was watching the show on VH1 and it seems like these parents take it a little far. I think it is great to compete, but tanning and putting in fake teeth? It seems a little unnatural. I grew up dancing and traveling competing in dance, so I know about stage makeup. My concern, is that the children's identities are lost through all the makeup. Also, it seems like the moms on tv seem to live through their children. Granted, the mom's are on the far end or they would not be on national tv. Just remember that these are little girls, and they are naturally beautiful with individual special talents. I have a 13 year daughter and she just started wearing make-up. Make sure your kids have fun, and I think that the pageants expect the children to look to grown up. Frankly, I think the children are prettier in their natural look. Of course, this is just my opinion, but I have a hard time watching these moms on the VH1 program. Just wanted you to get another opinion out there. Thanks and I hope your children are happy competing.
