Subject: If you don't like pageants you don't have to do them or be around them.

As far as colored bleached out hair goes. I used to think it was wrong, but I know more than one person who's children have absolutely nothing to do with a pageant or any kind of modeling and they frost and color their hair at young ages. I got my first perm when I was in the first grade and I never had anything to do with a pageant then. I guess our parents were abusing us too. As far as the practice goes, if the child enjoys it there is nothing wrong with it. I don't hear people trying to put a stop to all the work and practice that gymnasts and ice skaters have to put into their hobby. Not to mention that only a handful will ever go anywhere with their sport and that they constantly compete with injuries. Also, some of the worst poor sport parents can be little legue and soccer moms. I agree that some pageant people do get out of hand, but no more than parents who get carried away with sports and other activities that their kids get involved in and run their poor kids ragged trying to keep up.
