Standards for acceptable behavior should apply to everyone. SG made a poor decision in having her "star" do that onstage. Some of the comments on this have been way out of line, but many of them have merely expressed shock that a "respected" coach would find that particular routine acceptable. One can express disapproval without being a basher. SG simply made a bad decision; as anyone in the pageant world knows, when you goof up in public, you WILL be criticized for it. Criticism, in my opinion, is quite justified in this instance, but bashing on a personal level, is not. There's a difference. -- ORIGINAL PMS BOARD

Re: Magnified is one thing, but out right being hateful and hurtful are as unacceptable as anything she has done. She may be in an elevated position, but she is still human. (NT) -- a GG mom, 18:14:56 07/02/02 Tue
- She's human and she did something stoopid; same as the director who gave out plastic eggs or the one who had Jenny Jones at her pagaent, or any other number of people who have done stoopid things and been unmercifully bashed for it, by GG moms and non-GG moms alike. So why do you think SG deserves better treatment than everyone else who screws up? (NT) -- She's human, just like everyone else who gets trashed on these boards. What goes around comes around., 20:05:12 07/02/02 Tue
  - Re: She isn't above it, but who says bashing is the right thing to do? All bashing is wrong. My biggest problem is all the bashing of her daughter! You are as low as any criminal when you bash a child. No matter if the parent is wrong or right. (NT) -- A concerned mom, 22:52:51 07/02/02 Tue
